[quote=Anonymous]There is no published criteria. You submit statistics to your club who then passes to MLS Next (only league allowing bio-banding). Those include DOB, height, weight, and seated height (torso). The club takes a photo of you with your current age group peers to demonstrate relative small statues and submits that to the league along with a couple of individual photos. Most clubs roster a kid with their birth year second team until MLS Next gives approval to play down a year. To my knowledge, there are no statistical standard established for eligibility. That's a problem because it leads to using what is a great program for the wrong reason (competitive advantage). Bethesda abused the program last year and somewhat this year. Most others seem to be doing it right and even MLS academics will occasionally bioband smaller players, often as a safety measure for late developers playing with grown men. [/quote]
