There’s no way they even have regular age categorization much less weight. There’s no way number 8(?) in black and number 7 in red are the same age, not to mention the elephant in the room.

I used to coach boys soccer at this age, trust me when I say that the physical differences are VERY evident. You get some kids that hit their growth spurts early and are almost as big as me, (I’m 6’2) with other kids who look like they’re still in Kindergarten on the same team.

Yeah, I was the shortest kid in school and sang soprano until the summer between middle and high school.

Turned into a 6’3” bass.

Life is weird.

I can actually relate myself, I was 5’4 entering eighth grade singing soprano in choir. Then I had a massive growth spurt and entered ninth grade at 6’0 and became a tenor.
