Not necessarily a problem, but it would be the goal to give everyone development opportunities all the way through.

I'd disagree with this. While some kids have gone alright I know plenty of kids that have switched clubs every year and while they are good in their age group, many of the better players that were in their U13 team and stuck with the same club are now playing in higher age groups and seniors.
