[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There were not as many issues as with BY to SY. Although many parents still hated the change.

Before Aug 1 to Dec 31 birthdays were forced to play up. Coaches could add them to rosters and just not play them in games. Eventually they'd either get better or filter out.

This time is different because potentially better players who have been playing up can join teams a year younger.

A bench player that never sees the field doesn't affect anyone. A year older player that bumps a starter will cause parents to throw fits.[/quote]

It's all in the phrasing. There has to be a cut off, school year makes more sense in a country where high school sports are a big deal than birth year (parent of an 8th grade 2010 wondering what their team will look like in the spring) [/quote]
I don't agree with you and believe what you stated is opinion not fact.

You wanted to know how things went last time and I told you. It was much easier.

BY to SY will cause all kinds of tensions on teams. However 6 months after the change nobody will care.[/quote]Actually yours was opinion, comparing something that did happen to your complete guess of what will happen.[/quote]
