[QUOTE="wvmystichrome, post: 14506267, member: 29010"] Yes she is in middle school, 6th to 8th grades. My daughter has been good enough to play High school Varsity since 6th grade. She is in 8th now. She actually practiced with the team in her 5th grade year and sat on the bench at home games because she was to small to get in the game. The parents hold their kids back to be "more mature" but in reality it is to control the game/team and take up spots. In fact the ones I am talking about just played in a state tournament involving 7th and 8th graders and they literally blew the other teams off the floor. Did the officials know that 4 or 5 of the 8 players should have been in the 9th or 10th grade. I doubt it but that is the way the middle school coach wants it. I like you. You are telling the truth but of course my daughter goes to school in Kentucky and this is where it is happening. You get a few go on to college but very few. Yes they make the point to let people know. Kentucky actually stopped this practice 7-1-13 and if they are caught then they can't play. Also once they turn 19 any sport they play that has started the season yet they are disqualified from. There are about 3 on the current middle school team that will not be playing their senior season. Actually my daughter has followed several kids in school that are now either behind her a grade or in the same grade as her. Kentucky made it illegal, to a point, as of 7-1-13. Yes she started playing on the high school JV and Varsity team in the 6th grade. She made a name for herself because many of the nearby schools have recruited her to play for them but my wife says she is going to her old high school and graduating. So I do not have much to say. That's wild western PA doesn't have middle schools. [/QUOTE]
