The girls are ok , technically can match a boy and for the last 2-3 years kind of kept up with the boys. Now the size and speed are so apparent it hurts the rest of the team.
My thought is when the kids are younger , probably u11 or younger, it’s not that big of a detriment to have girls playing on a boys team. But once the boys start growing and getting faster, having a girl on a boys team hurts the team. The girl will get better because no girls team plays quick fast and as technical as a boys team , but the boys team is playing with one less player.
Not hating , I have 3 girls , just don’t understand why some clubs allow this.

The girl benefits the most in this type of situation. The boys may benefit in that they will learn to play a man down.

Age is irrelevant.
Gender is irrelevant.
You will all be assimilated.
Resistance is futile.

Neither of the girls played in the Weston Cup. Tournament results reflected skill and speed of only the boys.
