[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The bias around the birthday happens no matter where you draw the line. The advantage to moving the line is keeping kids together with their school friends and not having trapped players. I am obviously the parent of a trapped player, as all the Q1 birth parents just come in and shout and yell about how its a bad idea and we should get over it. [/quote] What are the actual advantages? Trapped in what? Doesn't it just mean the Q4 player has both school friends and club friends? (as they all do)[/quote] It’s called relative age effect and it exists in all youth sports https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_age_effect This doesn’t solve the relative age effect. It just shifts who it affects. But it does at least solve the trapped player problem.[/quote]
