[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So what about the 30% of the country that do not have a Sept 1 school cutoff? Some are pretty late.  Then do you have a rule that those four to five months worth of kids cannot play in their age matrix?  I do not see how that works across the board. [/quote]

With grad year this can all be fixed!

Nope, that'll just introduce much older kids playing with younger ones purely for advantage like in other youth sports.[/quote]

What is much older? And how do you decide that? Is a July kid held back much older? Would only be 1 month older than Aug kids?

So should freshman be able to play varsity or not? It wouldn’t be fair for a freshman to take a seniors spot?

Either kids are good enough or they aren’t 1 year doesn’t matter most elite players can and do play up.

I’m not for Grad Year but you cowards who treat it like the boogy man have kids weak as wet toilet paper.

COMPETE regardless of age groupings.[/quote]
With GY sports crazy parents hold their kid back in middle school as long as possible. (Usually 2 years) This gives their kid an advantage in sports and translates into 16 year old freshman and 20 year old seniors.[/quote]
