[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The holdback whiners rarely have their facts right. Not even close to “half” the IL top 10 of 2022 are holdbacks, depending on your cutoff date, and to argue cutoff dates is to argue a matter of weeks, not years. And the top kids are going to be top of the class and dominate whether they hold back or not. Holding back might help the #800 kid move up to #500. But the top 50 kids are going to be top of their own age group, the year above, or the year below. Whiners who look at top teams with top talent whine “holdback” without having any idea what they are talking about. It’s a convenient excuse for your kid and his team not being as competitive. [/quote] This is just not true. Sept 1 is the date; it’s really not up to interpretation. I mean seriously, the top 3 kids are holdbacks and the top goalie was a Fall 02 birthday. My kid is a 21 D1 commit and played against 3 of them in 6/7th grade. They were decent, but not spectacular. We kicked their butts at Koopers. Spallina always played “up”, by grade, but was old for his grade. Of course, I would ask if it doesn’t help, as you contend, why do so many kids do,it?[/quote]
