We're entering a similar situation. Kid may be able to play up next year with 13U on the big field. Seems like folks feel like it's worth it to have a year in slow motion if it means getting big field experience?

When a kid gets to 7th grade he has two years to prepare before high school ball. I don’t advise a kid skipping 13u in 7th grade because he’s 12u eligible and going right to 14u the next season. I don’t advise playing slow motion 13u ball the summer before entering high school.

How the better pitchers throw and how better hitters hit between 13u and 14u is significant.
