[quote=Anonymous]It is annoying. That was one thing I liked about soccer. With the red card system in the leagues. They were very strict about kids' birthdays. I think swimming is pretty strict about this also. For real talent it doesn't matter though. My DD is playing up a year legit in basketball. We decided it was better for her to play up a year, because she was going to be matching up against all the red shirts anyway. In girls' sports I don't think it matters as much, because often times the tournaments and leagues are a mix of two grades because there aren't as many teams. I don't understand why school leagues tolerate this. We had a guy on my high school team that was dumb as a box of rocks and was held back the old-fashioned way. I don't think he should have been rewarded with playing on the sports teams.[/quote]
