[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let me guess, you held your child back to give them the advantage and it does work that way and now your kid is upset you held them back.

They need to go by age.  So glad some sports go by age.  I have a younger kid in the grade and he does well but he cannot compete with a kid held back two years older.  [/quote]

For the last time because apparently a lot of you are very slow. Nobody is talking about going by grade year. The conversation is about aligning birth year by the school year, not using grade year. So, the birth year period would run Aug to Aug instead of Jan to Jan.

I have seen it said so many times in DCUM that DCUM'S anti-redshirt posters are incapable of basic math, and wow does that seem true.[/quote]

"aligning to school year" but NOT for the purpose of aligning to grade year?   Why?   Guess your kid is one of the Sep-Dec birthdays who were adversely affected by the change.

Of course the attempt would be made to align with grade year if possible, outside of students held back or moved forward.   If not, why not make the playing year Apr to Apr so my kid benefits.

As someone else said, there is no problem to solve here, except for the kids who suffered the first transition.  No need to re-run that and force more kids to suffer another one.[/quote]
