[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think ALL the clubs are going to see players leaving with the new birth-year mandate, mainly because the parents don't understand the mandate and the kids don't want to play with different kids, or other kids who they see as "below" them.[/quote] I can't imagine a kid who has played travel soccer wanting to quite because of the birth year mandates. Has anyone seen this happening with their clubs or teams? Parents at my club are definitely interested in figuring out who is an '07, '08, '09 etc. to get a sense of which kids and carpool partners they might be grouped with for next year, but no one is freaking out about the change. And wanting to play with your friends seems like a rec league thing, and most rec leagues are staying with the current age groups.[/quote] YES. Parents and kids want teams to stay together in the age groups they are accustomed to, and not see the teams mixed up by the birth year mandate.[/quote]
