[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The amount of chaos will be very specific to individual teams. If your player is currently on a team with no or very few late birthdays (Sept-Dec) then impact could be nothing.

[b]If your current team has a lot of late birthdays then you COULD lose a lot of players but not necessarily because they might choose to stay and play up.[/b]

[b]If the team one year older at your club has a lot of late birthdays then your team might get a bunch of new players who could bump existing ones.[/b]

In an ideal world, the number of players coming and going would be equal and disruption will be minimal. But there will certainly be uneven amounts from club to club and team to team, so it’s impossible to apply it generally.

Either way, after a year players will settle and it will be fine.[/quote]

I think my DD is on a travel team with too many players (including starters) who will be bumped down because of the change. And even if the club let’s them play up, I don’t see a reason for them to stay — might as well make the transition now and be the biggest and best on a younger age group that you’re graduating with.

And at the same time I don’t think the age group older than her team now has many that would move down. Essentially I think my DD’s team will suck after this change so we’ll probably be looking to make a club change. But then it’s hard to know what the consequences will be at the other clubs either. 😬[/quote]
