[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Two year spreads are not ridiculous. We see them at every weekend lacrosse event including ones we are going to this weekend. Tournament registrations list kids d.o.b.  Look at the rosters for 8th or 9th graders sometime and get a clue. It happens all the time now. Kids start school late and then repeat a middle school grade and that gives you a two year spread between oldest and youngest 8th and 9th graders. The prior poster may have made a math error or typo, but the point is spot on. This weekend's fall club tournament season will begin with many  15 year old 8th graders playing against kids who are just turned 13 like my son. Look it up before spouting off, and you're just wrong and please stop repeating it more times than your kid did 8th grade please. [/quote]

I have a clue. We are on a travel lacrosse team and have yet to see all these 15 year old phenoms you hate. Yes there may be a few kids who started late and then repeat a grade. Most are just held back one year. My DS just turned 14 and is in 8th grade. He has an August birthday. Being in private, they would not let him start.  Cutoff was June 1.

Give your kid some vitamins and maybe he will grow more.
