That doesn't help them. The coaches aren't necessarily going to look at a player and say " Oh, she is young" and cut her some slack. If they are looking at you they expect you to compete.
Timing can be everything.
Great advise which I think many parents and coaches dont even think about, especially at 14s.

Younger DD on an unofficial. Coach says she is following about 18 girls for 4 - 6 incoming DD's year. She said there were 3 categories, we really want, we kinda' want, we're watching just in case she is a late bloomer or some we want don't come.
DW asked point blank, which category is DD in?
DD stopped corresponding after that visit!
PS DD should do the VAST majority of the talking. But if there is that key question (see above) that is not being asked, by all means, step in.
