Small fields will be beneficial in developing ball skills for young kids, but not all of these changes are good.

The shift to playing in birth year hurts smaller areas that do not have a lot of kids in developmental programs, as some age groups fail to form teams.

I have a 12 year old that is playing in U15 this year. I would prefer that he play on age.
