Message: [QUOTE="upstater, post: 1856047, member: 153"] I used to think the exact same thing. Now look at me. We ran into problems. The age matrix broke up our travel team. We went looking for clubs. We are happy now. But, what could we do? My daughter was playing up 2 ages on our local travel team. When the age matrix broke up the team, her only travel option was to play against 13 year olds as a 10 year old. The travel team at her level did not have a solid coach, only a trainer. I thought the U13s were unsafe for her, so we went looking elsewhere. She is now at a premier club, and they are all 10 year olds. She is one of the top 3 on the team, which means she is in good company. [/QUOTE]
