Seems he thinks getting buy-in here might affect the actual outcome, which may be an even crazier idea than SY+60.

You are still underselling it. Came up with SY+60, trying to get buy-in, looking for support in lobbying appropriate leadership and convinced leadership is considering SY+60 and said so.

So, why is leadership going between 8/1 and 9/1?

What could be the reasoning?

I know, I know....

They're trying to figure out a way to address the most amount of trapped players and not enable some to play down by using a single cutoff date.

Good and correct...

The problem is that there's no way to make everyone happy with a single SY cutoff date.

How could you address all this and make everything work across multiple states and different school start dates. If there was just an easily implementable way to address.

You mean like grade year? Because none of the key players are talking grade year.

Nope, nobody other than private school hold backs and homeschoolers want GY.

SY + 60? Still don’t know what that means.

Sy+60 means for most players there's a hard cutoff of 9/1 + 12 months and all you need is an eligable birthcert to play.

However if you were born 60 days before 9/1 and can provide birthcert and evidence that you're enrolled in that grade in school even if you're technically up to 60 days older you can play with that age group.

What this does is create one rule that works in all geographies that completely addresses all trapped players. Also because you need to provide proof of enrollment in xyz grade players can't play down a grade.

End result is no trapped players and all players at events and showcases are one grade in school.

BTW, you're welcome from a GA parent that figured all this out.

GA doesn't hate the ECNL hats we just want to play you and win or lose.

This sounds like grade year or school year with exceptions for grade year. Regardless, bosses in charge of national leagues said they are against exceptions so straight school it will be.

SY+60 is a little different because one rule from a league perspective addresses all trapped players and doesn't let older player play down.

So in this system, if you’re looking at September 1, 2012 - August 31, 2013 group, if you are born in Aug or July of 2012, but can prove you’re in the same grade as the Sept 1 - Aug 31 grouping, you’re playing with that group even though you’re a little bit older?
