[quote=Anonymous]I have boys with summer birthdays. For rec baseball, yeah- they play with kids 1-2 years older. But travel and all stars are both by when your birthday is, not what grade the kid is in. For travel, they cutoff dates are April 30/May 1, so they're among the older kids on their teams. For LL all stars, the cutoff is end of August, so they're among the youngest. But in both cases it doesn't matter what grade the kid is in. The travel/all stars thing started for them around age 8/9. As someone mentioned above summer swim at least is a June 1 cutoff, so they're always pretty good for that. Lacrosse, rec soccer, basketball- those have been by grade, and yeah- they get stuck playing with kids who are a year+ older than them. I think the bigger issue for my kids will arise in high school, if they want to keep playing. [/quote]
