[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let's set some facts:

1.  Madlax cheated.  HOCO rules explicitly say everyone on a team in a certain grade division must all be students in that grade.  If the refs had misinterpreted the rule, the league would have corrected them and did not.

2.  The Madlax 2025/2026 B team was not very good and played in the 2026 A division (second to worse in 2026).  They had a few 2025s on the team.  On a team that bad in a division that bad, having older kids on the team is a big difference maker.

[u]3.  Saying "Everyone does it and gets away with it" is pathetic[/u]

4.  If you are putting your 1st grader on a club team, you need your head examined.[/quote]

Saying everyone does it and gets away with it is not pathetic it is educational.  Many people reading like the father of a second grader might not be aware of the issue.  This is not specific to Madlax by any means.  Not only do teams have re-class kids (legal) they also bring in guest players not on rosters (illegal.)  Hoco league does little to nothing to enforce this.  This is not new and not unique.  USL needs to step up and become a real organization.  They had the money to build a large new HQ with a brand new field.  They seem to have some influence over NCAA coaches and they know who runs the clubs and tournaments.  They can fix this.  There are many ways to do this by verifying DOB's having age based events that matter.  If they could get the coaches to attend recruiting events that had age based teams through HS the issue would go away.  Blaming Madlax or HOCO will do nothing as no one cares that matters.[/quote]
