Congrats! I think this is what most Aug/Sept parents expected would happen for their kid, but from this thread, it seems that isn't the case.

The top team at clubs will be made up of August - December kids. Whether that is from moving kids from former B teams or kids from outside the club. We all know that the oldest kids in a 12 month range are on the top teams. For the former top players on a team, born January - March, get used to reduced minutes, keeping the bench warm or being placed on a lower team.

Not the case on DC's top team. Team is pretty much the same as last year. Only 2 trapped Aug-Dec players added for next year.

So you're saying that if the team stays as is today that all players will be the same graduating year aka grade in school this fall when SY starts?

What? Has nothing to do with grade. This is about how strong coach lock is on re age grouped kids. This grade crude is a dead cat.

That's not an answer

This isn't some grade survey thread for your perverse enjoyment. It's a thread for people with actual Aug-Dec kids seeing what offers the clubs are making. Unrelated to your grade quest vendetta thing.

Its a simple question. Are all the players on your top team the same graduating year?

Not answering the question says a lot.

What is your problem that people can't have a swap of information without you trying to infiltrate your grade agenda?

Regular people with Aug to Dec birthdays trying to figure out offers.

Not become some pawn in your end goal to make youth soccer care about grades.

This is a thread about Aug-Dec players and how things work with SY this fall. All of these players have been playing up since 2017. Yes grade in school matters because this fall many will be playing on their correct grade in school team for the first time.

Grade only matters to you so you can convince that an August girl on your September daughter's team to play up when it is her and her families call. Not yours. So self centered.

Parents of Aug- Dec kids exchanging club info on offers and you use this as a campaign for misinformation. Again!

Is it "misinformation" when it's true?

Or is your agenda to play down showing?

it's misinformation as you feel to need to falsely inform others to help your daughter at their expense.

I asked if all the players on the top team someone was humble bragging about were the same graduating year.

You flipped out and started rage posing because you know the repercussions when the question is proven true.

Why do you need to know so bad about others personal situations? How do you benefit?

If teams are all the same graduating year it means that the club they're playing for isnt rostering Aug birthdays on grade down teams. They're being rostered on their correct grade in school team.

You can’t “play down” when the grouping is by birthdate. It’s nonsensical.

People should make the best decisions for their kids. They can consider grade if they want to & the club allows it.

Fin.

Then why do college coaches all want to know players graduating year when players go through recruiting?

Is it because they want to know when they can expect the player on campus?

It is because theres NCAA rules that say Colleges Coches cant speak directly with players until June 15th after players Sophmore year in High School?

Is it because college coaches are trying to determine the level a player is playing at and compare/contrast them against other players in their graduating year?

This doesn't seem related to offers for Aug to Dec birthdays.

You are trying to sell the Brooklyn bridge. Not be noble and help anyone but yourself. People can do their own research, talk to their coaches and teams.

You are just trying to pollute the well, again and again.

It doesn't. It means that's where the team felt everyone belongs to make the team.

Why do you care again? Because it shouldn't matter to a random parent what a random club does that their kid isn't at and doesn't know about.

Aug birthdays because they can play up can play at two different levels in SY. This is why the question was asked.

Most players and clubs in this position will choose/prefer for the player to play up on their correct grade in school team.

See how it all fits togerher now + why grade in school matters?

100% graduating year is related to grade in school.

That's not related to offers for Aug to Dec kids, who could be in any grade. It doesn't matter.

Aug birthdays because they can play up can play at two different levels in SY. This is why the question was asked.

Most players and clubs in this position will choose/prefer for the player to play up on their correct grade in school team.

See how it all fits togerher now + why grade in school matters?

Aug kids no different than any other month. Has nothing to do with grades.

It depends on when the school starts NJ is late Sept and some in NY are Nov. All these players would be eligible to play on grade down teams. Which causes players to be misaligned which makes recruiting 1000x harder especially if you're on a grade down team. This is because college coaches are comparing you against other players in your grade. Not level played in club.

Congrats! I think this is what most Aug/Sept parents expected would happen for their kid, but from this thread, it seems that isn't the case.

The top team at clubs will be made up of August - December kids. Whether that is from moving kids from former B teams or kids from outside the club. We all know that the oldest kids in a 12 month range are on the top teams. For the former top players on a team, born January - March, get used to reduced minutes, keeping the bench warm or being placed on a lower team.

Not the case on DC's top team. Team is pretty much the same as last year. Only 2 trapped Aug-Dec players added for next year.

So you're saying that if the team stays as is today that all players will be the same graduating year aka grade in school this fall when SY starts?

What? Has nothing to do with grade. This is about how strong coach lock is on re age grouped kids. This grade crude is a dead cat.

That's not an answer

This isn't some grade survey thread for your perverse enjoyment. It's a thread for people with actual Aug-Dec kids seeing what offers the clubs are making. Unrelated to your grade quest vendetta thing.

Its a simple question. Are all the players on your top team the same graduating year?

Not answering the question says a lot.

What is your problem that people can't have a swap of information without you trying to infiltrate your grade agenda?

Regular people with Aug to Dec birthdays trying to figure out offers.

Not become some pawn in your end goal to make youth soccer care about grades.

This is a thread about Aug-Dec players and how things work with SY this fall. All of these players have been playing up since 2017. Yes grade in school matters because this fall many will be playing on their correct grade in school team for the first time.

Grade only matters to you so you can convince that an August girl on your September daughter's team to play up when it is her and her families call. Not yours. So self centered.

Parents of Aug- Dec kids exchanging club info on offers and you use this as a campaign for misinformation. Again!

Is it "misinformation" when it's true?

Or is your agenda to play down showing?

You can’t “play down” when the grouping is by birthdate. It’s nonsensical.

People should make the best decisions for their kids. They can consider grade if they want to & the club allows it.

Fin.

Then why do college coaches all want to know players graduating year when players go through recruiting?

Is it because they want to know when they can expect the player on campus?

It is because theres NCAA rules that say Colleges Coches cant speak directly with players until June 15th after players Sophmore year in High School?

Is it because college coaches are trying to determine the level a player is playing at and compare/contrast them against other players in their graduating year?

This doesn't seem related to offers for Aug to Dec birthdays.

Nah. You need to reread the Outliers by Gladwell. If you believe in the concept of cumulative advantages (and I do) then you'll only see that effect in the younger age groups in a few years at roughly the same rate as you are seeing current Jan to March kids over represented on top teams. The current Jan to March kids already banked their advantages (got extra attention, made top teams, played top comp), so they'll be fine. It's the late spring and summer babies that are most at risk.

College recruiting unrelated to age groups of players.

People shouldn't feel coerced into making a bad decision based on one person's self profiting made up beliefs.

Don't take my word for it.

From a club, https://www.eastsidefc.org/agegroups

Will this impact college recruiting?
The new two-year age group structure will not negatively impact college recruiting. College coaches evaluate players based on their performance, development, and potential—not the exact age grouping of their club team.

You should be more worried about the bearded euros taking your kid's spot before someone that happens to be 6 months older because of an age change in 2026. Smh
