[quote=Anonymous]When my kids were young enough for birthdays to really matter we addressed it matter of factory “Yeah, that’s a bummer. But you’ll have fun on X team and if a few years it’ll at even out.” Birthdays only really matter at an age when sports should be about having fun and learning skills anyway. Sure, they may not have a chance to shine, but that’s just for ego, and such is life. I definitely see how birthdays matter when young (I have swimmers and divers and it definitely makes a difference in what opportunities they get) but those are the breaks and they’re learning life lessons by dealing with it. The truly talented will rise to the top regardless. [/quote]
