ECNL moving to school year not calendar

Haven't you all been reading this forum? Birth month/quartile has nothing to do with it. Those Q1 players just train harder, have higher soccer IQ and just come from better genetic stock than any Q4 player. In fact, those Q1 players may be the best players to ever play for their respective clubs.

Yeah and the BY parents aren’t worried about the change to SY but object to it only because it’s too difficult to implement

I'm not sure how youth soccer survived when it changed from SY to BY in the fall of 2017. Guess it was a miracle.

Q4 kids were pulled off their existing teams and told to play with kids the next grade up - as the youngest kids. It was good times.

In addition, they skipped a year of soccer development. U12 in my daughter’s case.

The good news is if you had a kid who skipped a year back then and they are still playing, they will "repeat" a year in 26/27 - so it all evens out.

Oh, you mean largely what is going to happen to older August born kids if they go with a 9/1 date - lose all their grade peers from BY team and play up a grade and be very youngest.

Most August kids are on the younger side for their grade. That’s why they want to do 9/1. The Majority of Aug 2011 are 8th graders.

They said they can fix everyone’s problems only can fix most. I understand the idea of allowing 8/1 and kids play up. They don’t want to do that.

It’s time for a new generation of birth months dreams to die. It is time for the Sept-Dec kids to get back to the top of the podium.

At least the August birthdays will largely be staying on the same team (but for the fall birthdays who get added). So they should be ok. Always stinks to lose your grade peers of course.

What is basis for your statement that most/majority of August kids are on the younger side for their grade?

Also, when/where did they say they don’t want younger August kids to play up? Kids don’t have to if they don’t want to!

That really depends how many September to December kids are on any given team. And don’t underestimate how challenging it will be to be perhaps the only kid not in the older grade that the entire rest of the team will be on.
