I feel like this was definitely pretty normal growing up playing club football up until the age of like 10? Same as with tennis and other sports I played.

Yeah i think the big case here is PSVs academy is split by gender that early, i think we played with the girls until we were like 11 or so, but that might also be due to the lack of girls-only teams at that age where im from

A lack of girls-only teams was definitely the core of it. I played with girls too but when more and more girls started to play football every club moved to girls-only teams. When I first started playing football my club only had 2 or 3 girls in every year group, when my younger sister started playing football they maybe had about 10-15.

Yeah, except for my last half year of football I always had girls in my team.
