Can you get away with being a semi-colon

Just leave grade out of it then. Oh, wait, that's what they largely do. Cool. |
That article was guestimating based on the authors personal experience. More competitive areas and levels will have less. Less competitive areas and levels will have more. |
The larger significance is that a sizable number of misaligned players in fact existed. Some only have memories of what a past they never truly existed. (She did say many younger Aug-Sept did play up -- but it's hard to get into the nuance with a troll). |
Yeah, that's why this one works. Imagine flashing a made up wrong table to a coach and telling them what age group you want? Or saying that kid doesn't belong on my kids team because he doesn't fit on my made up table?

Thats the issue and the reason why parents are so confused. You cant just ignore an issue and not expect it to grow and eventually blow up over time. |
Nothing is made up or wrong. This is the same information but more detail is added and unnecessary detail is removed.

At the highest levels Aug birthdays played up. You never heard of players playing down. This was always done to facilitate college recruiting. |
You never heard because you didn't care and people just minded their own business. |
It's wrong when a Junior can play U15 because they are smart. |
False, made up until proof provided. Podcast of expert said your wrong. |
This one is better 11v11 = U18/U19 = 8/1/2007 + younger (Senior/Junior) 11v11 = U17 = 8/1/2009 + younger (Senior/Junior/Sophomore) 11v11 = U16 = 8/1/2010 + younger (Junior/Sophomore/Freshman) 11v11 = U15 = 8/1/2011 + younger (Sophomore/Freshman/8th grade) 11v11 = U14 = 8/1/2012 + younger (Freshman/8th grade/7th grade) 11v11 = U13 = 8/1/2013 + younger (8th grade/7th grade/6th grade) 11v11 = U12 = 8/1/2014 + younger (7th grade/6th grade/5th grade) 9v9 = U11 = 8/1/2015 + younger (6th grade/5th grade/4th grade) 9v9 = U10 = 8/1/2016 + younger (5th grade/4th grade/3rd grade) 7v7 = U9 = 8/1/2017 + younger (4th grade/3rd grade/2nd grade) 7v7 = U8 = 8/1/2018 + younger (3rd grade/2nd grade/1st grade) 4v4 = U7 = 8/1/2019 + younger (2nd/grade/1st grade/kindergarten) 4v4 = U6 = 8/1/2020 + younger (1st grade/kindergarten/Pre-school) |

The more you try to confuse parents the more they get educated on why Aug birthdays need to play on their correct grade in school team. This is for next fall when SY starts. 11v11 = U18/U19 = ≤ 8/1/2007 = ≤ Senior 11v11 = U17 = ≤ 8/1/2009 = ≤ Junior 11v11 = U16 = ≤ 8/1/2010 = ≤ Sophmore 11v11 = U15 = ≤ 8/1/2011 = ≤ Freshman 11v11 = U14 = ≤ 8/1/2012 = ≤ 8th grade 11v11 = U13 = ≤ 8/1/2013 = ≤ 7th grade 11v11 = U12 = ≤ 8/1/2014 = ≤ 6th grade 9v9 = U11 = ≤ 8/1/2015 = ≤ 5th grade 9v9 = U10 = ≤ 8/1/2016 = ≤ 4th grade 7v7 = U9 = ≤ 8/1/2017 = ≤ 3rd grade 7v7 = U8 = ≤ 8/1/2018 = ≤ 2nd grade 4v4 = U7 = ≤ 8/1/2019 = ≤ 1st grade 4v4 = U6 = ≤ 8/1/2020 = ≤ kindergarten |
