Reply to "Transitioning to the big boy field, 60/90, who had the initial advantage?"

I notice the kids who are full grown when they are 12/13u have an advantage freshman year in high school. Then, thinks can change. My son grew late. He was fairly small all thru LL. A middle of the pack kid. He sat on the bench a lot and was cut from All Stars at 12. But he kept working on his pitching mechanics. Today he's 6'3" 200lbs, and pitches on varsity as a soph in the WCAL. (He grew between freshman and soph year.) I always told him when he was younger, don't worry - you don't want to peak at 12 It all worked out fine for him because he kept working on his technique along the way.
