Reply to "Play up or down?"

Should a freshman play with his age group (down), play with his grad year, or if he is good and has the option to both play with his grad year on the weekends and a summer league with college kids and former college players during the week, which would you pick and why?

I'll spin this a little different. As a "freshman", it doesn't matter about up or down. What matters is the level of competition he is seeing, and whether or not he is having fun. Try to find the best of both worlds.

Ultimately, being really good at any sport requires a certain level of God given talents.... then getting better at a sport requires competing against other's that also have a certain level of God given talents. It's been my experience that age doesn't really factor into this.

Junior summer, play in the 17u division for recruitment purposes....
