[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Just in the DC area, we have Freshman turning 16 this past Fall semester in the IAC. There will be multiple 19 year olds playing across many of the private schools. We have Mater Dei embedding the believe that it is better for boys development/maturity to be held back ie it is an institutional practice. Holding back is so common now, that if your child (particularly boy) is "on age" in the traditional sense, he is often considered young. It is here to stay.

Only thing that stops it is changing rules to where 19 is the cutoff, not 20. If not, parents will continue to push the boundaries. In most sports, the truly special talents are the one's who play up/above their age group. Funny how things change.[/quote]

Per the IAC league rules, a player is deemed ineligible if they turn 19 prior to September 1st.

Not sure what the WCAC league rules are.

Correct. You can't be 20 at any time and play HS sports. You can be 19. Cut off for holdbacks is turning 19 on 9/1.[/quote]

I would hope so! Who is 20 and still in high school?[/quote]
