Daughter has played up for quite some time. It can be intimidating at times, but it will stretch them as a player. Your team should also be winning about 75% of your scheduled games. If your winning 90+% of your games, you need to find more challenging tournaments (better competition, play up, etc.....). If you are wining 25%, you are playing out of your league. After playing up we found that she was way ahead of girls her age at camps high school tryouts etc....

I so agree with this! When you're on a team that's trying to play above its level nobody is happy. Ask me how i know. You can't lose 95% of the time and maintain high spirits. Or maybe some can but we couldn't. Then there are the teams that call themselves C level and sandbag with their pitchers most of the A teams around here would take and trophy hunt. The girls don't get anything out of that but cheap plastic trinkets.

I think the team DD plays on recruits by size, and they are all big. While waiting for our field to clear for the next game I overheard the competition asking where our org's 10U team was because the girls waiting to play next have to be the 12U team! It was good for a laugh when they realized those girls waiting around were the 10U team.
