You need to choose 5 of the 6 boys AND 4 of the 7 girls:
C(6,5)*C(7,4) = 6*35 = 210
ANSWER: 210
Note you chose "permutations" for the topic, but since nothing is said about the order in which they are picked, or about the positions each player plays, the problem is about combinations, not permutations.
