I doubt it, because I've seen girls play on boys teams before, and this same girl has played with the boys for a while now. The only reason the league intervened was because some parents from one particular team complained.
I don't know why the parents chose not to move her up to a more competitive team like the freshman or JV teams. I do know the girl is only 11 (maybe 12) and emotionally and socially might not be ready to be around older girls. Or maybe she doesn't want to play with the older girls just yet. She is very softspoken and shy. She just happens to be very tall for her age and has exceptional skills. It runs in the family.
