[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our club is running winter scrimmages with the new age groups. So far, at least for middle and high school ages, the club seems to be asking the August/September birthday kids to play up a group if they are in the higher grade. Aug/Sep kids that are in the lower grade are playing with the "correct" age group. Not sure if this will hold for the actual team placement in fall 2026. My daughter (Aug-born playing in the higher age group) recognizes that she will have more competition for her starting position with the influx of Aug-Dec players from the birth year above her, and will have to train harder to keep her spot on the team and/or try other positions. However, this is WAY preferable to her than playing on a team with 8th graders when she starts 9th grade.[/quote]Are you in the DMV area?[/quote]

Yes, in Arlington. Note that this doesn't seem like a blanket policy nor guarantee of placement in the older age group but indicates that they are taking grade into account.[/quote]
