ECNL moving to school year not calendar

My child was born September 5, 2017, but we waited to start school due to Covid. Instead of going into 3rd grade, my child will be entering 2nd grade. Under the birth year system, my child is playing with other 2017s who are mostly going into 3rd grade next year and who are mostly older since my child's birthday is near the end of the year. In this scenario, my child is in a lower grade than soccer peers on the current team.

New system ---> August 1-July 31 dates. Are those the cut off dates for when the birthday occurs? Does that mean to be on a U9 team, you would have to be 9 years old or under that specific year between the dates of August 1 to July 31? If so, does that put a September 5, 2017 birthday as a U9 player this year AND next year when the change occurs since September 5, 2026 is when my child turns 9?

Please help my tired brain.

Anyone born after 8/1 will repeat their current age group next year. A 2017 U9 born after 8/1 will repeat U/9. My oct 2015 will repeat U/11.

No the issue is if youre going to switch from BY to SY do it right and address all the issues. Don't resolve one issue by creating another.

We used July 31 to August 1 for years before the change was announced to BY in 2015. Seemed to work just fine.

No sixty plus is a loser idea that keeps coming back by the same zombie. Both DOA w/o an actual arrival, just wish casting out loud... constantly for no reason.

Only simple minded people can't comprehend the idea. And only simple minded people think it's just one person.

I don't think its the same person.

Also I think SY+30 is a good idea.

Sock puppet 1: Hey, what about SY+30

Sock puppet 2: Oh yeah hey, what a great idea.

Normal people: Please, please stop, it's not going to happen single poster guy.

Sock puppet choir: What! Everybody's talking about how great SY+30 would be! All of us real posters are so mad you think there's only one of us.

You seem to think that you're some kind of forum police telling everyone what to think.

Sorry, the more you fight against SY+30 or even SY+60 the better it seems.

What does that make you when you are clearly wrong. If they were going to go with a single date it needed to be 9/1. 8/1 is a shitshow for August families that chose to start on time. It's not our fault you are incapable of understanding nuance.
