[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^ this isn’t talent, idiot.  This is a kid not having a team for a season because they are “trapped”.  Tell your kid he can’t play spring season—see what he thinks about that.[/quote]

I really don’t understand the “trap” thing. A Fall birthday player can keep playing with his/her team be it playing up. The only issue is when kids leave their clubs at U18/19 due to college when your DC will be a Senior in HS. Otherwise, they can stay on the team assuming their performance is on par with the rest of the team.

My DD, late October BDAY, is still in elementary school while 98% of her team is in MS.

Please tell me what I’m missing.[/quote]

What you're missing is that some '05 teams will sit out the spring season, or scale back, because most of the kids are in ninth grade and are playing high school or JV soccer, but this leaves the eighth graders in the lurch.  And I think you recognize the issue of when your kid is a senior and most of her team has already gone to college.  [/quote]
