I have never heard this one, as I know here in the USA when the teams from here have competed in a lot of the different Sports a lot of the players are way older than this. And even with Soccer, they are older a lot of the time as well. But it could be something to do with thinking that they are Best at performance under this age?

I will try to make a wild guess. Probably, the bones might give way in such a physical sport like football. The younger the players are, the lesser risk for injury.
