Whose DD is playing up this year? And what are your plans for the future? Are you going to continue playing up or stay at U11?

I see lots of talented girls playing up this year, it would be nice to get them all on a team next year.

Honky, I'm surprised you need to ask, why not get a roster from all of the teams and google the rest?

Cindy, Im sorry your DD is not good enough to play up. Don't be hatin'.

Geez...ask a simple question and get an snotty answer from someone that wouldn't have the guts to talk like that to your face.

There are entire teams playing up at Xfire. Royals, EFC, and some of the Crush team is also. They are the making of next years teams. There are even some girls playing on the A teams and those if they are good enough will continue, probable, to play on the teams they are on, though usually they end up becoming next years A teams leaders.
Putting the best together will happen when they reach ODP age or so they say. Until that time I feel the everyday competition from the other girls that our DD's play against will get them better than if they all end up on a team that is so good it does not have any competition.

The list would be too long to type out.
Almost every team has at least 2 if not 3 players playing up. Some clubs have entire teams as stated above.

My guess is that about 90% will play U11 next year unless the format changes (like 9 -v- 9 a side).

I think D1 has already stated that U11 next year will be 9 v 9.

Hey Dragon I do not know about your DD but a lot of these girls are giants by next year U12. Saw one this weekend a full twelve inches taller than my DD and fifty pounds heavier at least.

Better have her slouch and starve if you are fixing b-certs others may talk:D

Not very fast, but don't get in the way of her kick :mrgreen:
OUCH :shock:

My dd is small and eats like a horse. :shock:
We're waiting for the day she starts growing, but not too much...she's our little curd. :lol:

My DD is normal height for her age but so thin we only need two blades of grass to make her a grass skirt. :shock: We worry when the wind blows to hard.

Just can't figure out where all of the food goes she eats?

? :roll:

Victory · « **Reply #12 on:** October 17, 2005, 07:08:03 PM »

My DD plays up and has from the time she was 5. Next year she may play at age so she can return to the field more. She does a great job at keeper but is not liking givinh up so much field play but can not compete in the field with top notch U-12's. The problem is if she played at age next year she would be playing with 6th graders and she will be in 7th. Going to be a tough choice for her.

Lollipop plays up.......... only because shes up a year in school.
She likes playing with her friends. But.....if she EVER wants to play her age or not play at all................. TOTALLY up to her!!!

cheese · « **Reply #15 on:** October 17, 2005, 09:32:12 PM »

My dd played up last year, best thing she ever did

Let her play at her age this year and became a little force to be reckoned with. :roll:

Dragon · « **Reply #16 on:** October 17, 2005, 09:40:20 PM »

Dragon try that last yr and nobody believe she playing up cause she so big, Dragon not big just tall and extremly muscular, so dont know why Dragonkid so big. Must be the non-diet peseants we consume in the castle :lol:

Now this yr she play age, and people think she too old to play at U11 :oops: What a poor Dragon to do :roll:

Dragonkid same boat. Dragon think school and soccer have to become 2 seperate things if going to play highest level soccer.
Rec time is when you want to play with school friends, not Select time :mrgreen:

My DD played on the Baby Royals last year and this year is on age. She is in 6th grade and most of her friends play u12. She is completely happy with this. She has never questioned this or even asked for that matter to play up. There is a mix of girls on her team this year some 4th graders, mostly 5th graders, and a few 6th graders. They all seem to get along great and age doesnt seem to be an issue. I would rather have my DD play on age and get more playing time than play up and ride the pine.

:? Sounds to me, you are a coach looking to get a little insight on who you can get for your tryouts next year. Since we both know the number of kids allowed to play up per team, and you said "lot of talented girls" you must know who these kids are , why not just ask their parents? :? .

Good points there. for her the issue of grade is a big one. I will not be coaching next year so we will let her decide. It will really come down to whether or not she is all right playing full time keeper or not. I think she really wants to get back on the field.

I coach U13 and am a CP of a U11, but good for you trying to make assumptions, maybe next time you will be right.

Big Mac plays up. She's a fourth grader. Everybody else on Dos is 5th or 6th grade. I'd love to see her play at her own age next year...but it'll be up to her. She has made many wonderful friends on her team this year...I think it's be tough decision! :|

I wish I could find a way my DD could play down, might not come home with slivers on hind end.
