[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What clubs will do in SY is Dual Roster Aug birthdays on the grade down team and the correct grade team at the same time. This will give the cheater parents looking to play down what they want. Then over time the club will suggest and more likely the kid will ask to play on the team with kids their grade in school. By 8th grade all the Aug birthdays will be playing on the team thats their grade in school because clubs wont want to deal with 9th grade players playing high school soccer on a team with 8th grade players. Also players would be aligned for college recrutiing.

Unfortunately you have to give the play down losers what they want when kids are young.[/quote]Makes no sense. Players aren't dual rostered within clubs.[/quote]

Most often a kid will just play up as a guest and be rostered at their correct age group and more often those "guests" will find there way on tournament rosters, but I've seen it happen to be rostered in league at both. But when that's happened, the player often ends up primarily on one team, anyway, once it sinks it trying to be on 2 teams is too much.[/quote]
Some people just take a while to get reality into their thick skull.

But yes, this is what clubs will do. After a while they'll drop the hammer and say play on the team your grade or be demoted. Once this happens they'll play on the team thats their grade.[/quote]

In what I've seen grade plays no role.[/quote]
Thats because with BY nobody was able to play down a grade. Now with SY Aug/Sept birthdays potentially depending on when their school district started can. These are the ones that clubs will merged up to a coreect grade in school team over time but specifically before high school.[/quote]Clubs said that performance matters to play up not grades at school. They want kids playing on age but case by case excepts will be made.

Why do you need this so bad? Someone not benefiting from trying to go grade year pushing so hard to cyberbully kids by calling them losers and cheaters when they are simple playing where clubs tells them to play wouldn't make sense.[/quote]
