“Is it simply the pressure?”
It’s quite common considering that kids mature and develop at different stages. We had a running back in peewee’s that scored a touchdown on about 95% of his touches. He was so much faster and stronger than the other kids his age.
As years passed the gap narrowed and others caught up to him. He remained a decent player but by his senior year didn’t even get a vote for team MVP.
Peaking in peewees. Up till now I thought peaking in highschool was tough.
