Who knows? : Implied in your question is that any of these activities matter. They will in no way enhance her growth. They might, however, impede any further growth if she is so active that she has not started her period yet. What matters more is menses, once girls start their period their linear growth rapidly declines. Check with her pediatrician at the next checkup to get more detail on growth potential
