[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was born in December, that was the cutoff month when I was in school. When I played sports based on my age, i was in the top 5-10%. When i tried out for high school teams, I was in the top 11-15%, and never made the high school teams. i did make some teams in Junior High. My two DS were born in May and June, so I expect they may have problems making teams in High School. What sucks is now you have boys that are held back because they are "not emotionally" ready for kindergarten or first grade, a lot of these kids are pretty good at sports, so now my kids have to compete with older kids for spots. Older kids should be trying out for the grade they should be in.Schools could also limit the teams to one held back kid per team. That would curtail the parents from holding their kids back [/quote] It’s been happening for ever.[/quote]
