[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not the end of the world but it still is not great for the average level player  with an August birthday  that won't get to play with either his SY, the team they have been with for years or the majority of the kids their BY.  Not everyone is worried about college I'd sessions.   I understand there has to be a cutoff but 8/1 was probably the worst choice[/quote]

Agreed 9/1 was the better choice.  🫡[/quote]
9/1+30/60 is even better.

You get the 9/1 cutoff but if players can prove their grade and were born 30 or 60 days before 9/1 they can play with that group.

This addresses players playing down and also gets rid of the edge case trapped players.[/quote]
Yea I saw a the ECNL guys mention this at minute 3:25

Finally! some people get it.

Leagues don't have to be 100% binary. There are options that can be implemented that address trapped players entirely even the edge case SY ones.[/quote]Pay attention. They aren't ECNL guys and don't mention allowing players to cheat and play down.

One person mentions having Sept play up a year if they are up a grade. It would be pointless if course because players can always play up.[/quote]

One of the guys from the video is an ECNL girls coach. Sounds like they are looking into options.

The best one of course being grad year baby! Hold those 8th graders back!![/quote]idk if one random coach and a side training Klingon taking shop over 6 months ago is a signal that they are in the know on real deliberations.[/quote]

For sure… the random ECNL coach seemed like he has heard some real info on what is being discussed. Which is more credible than most things we read or hear about.[/quote]
He knew that somthing like 9/1+30/60 was being considered. Mathmatically it just makes sense.

ECNL will likely implement some kind of rule to not allow Aug birthdays to play down. If their district starts on an odd date allowing it.[/quote]Not even close to his rambling. You are having + delusions in your continuation of a pump and dump scheme of an idea. [/quote]
Please explain how allowing Aug birthdays to play down a grade helps ECNL. I'll wait...

Recruiters will be looking at a team of players that are graduating in X but theres 1 or 2 that are graduating in Y? From a recruiters perspective this is annoying because they're not graduating the year that youre expecting. But also how do you evaluate a player that might look really good but they're playjng against teams where most players are a year younger.

You are dumb[/quote]
