[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seems to me like people upset are going to be ready to throw down and want to reargue the switch to SY.

It's because most parents don't make educational decisions based on youth sports. I mean does it make sense to have younger kids on older teams ahead of kids older than them just because they went to school at different times? No, because it starts making teams away from actual soccer experience and skill -- the true purpose of 12-month windows.

This unfortunately is to be expected. When people are adversely impacted personally they will be understandably upset. When deciding to switch, all the big associations said it wouldn't be a perfect match for SY -- just better than now.

Also, to correct the record, misaligned players existed under the other system, too. 5% or an average of 1 per team. AND not everyone thinks playing up is great if your slated to be the youngest kid. Even back then as well as a growing amount of science.

[/quote]Clubs, leagues and parents are following what you are saying so everything else in this thread is just noise.

12 month window, the youngest is too tough to pick as a useful idea to excel and clubs won't let you play up on competitive teams just to hang out with friends.

In top of all this clubs don't have the capability to police any grade stuff because the certified docs don't exist.[/quote]
Except when your Aug kid playing down mysteriously never makes the A team and coaches keep hinting that they have spots on teams with kids their grade available.

Nobody is going to turn down parents focused on playing down and willing to pay to play on B and C teams.[/quote] pretty quickly 3 posters called out your BS

it makes no sense that a random parent expects all of youth soccer to implement new rules that cause a bunch of problems just to benefit them

the powers that be spent about two years getting from calendar year to seasonal year they are not going to fix problems that people do not have before seasonal year even started

you having to have your personal rule indicates that you are only fighting for yourself and not what is fair to others[/quote]
Its all you rage posting when you know reality guy is right.[/quote]The reality is leagues said age groups are 8/1 - 7/31 and didn't make grades any part of the rules.  The other reality is that leagues and all of the clubs in the DC area said they want to limit playing up, allowing it for the only best. Your future fake reality is nothing more than incorrect biased guesses without evidence to support your position other than a trust me bro, I'm old so I know everything.[/quote]People are going to have a harsh reality when their kid isnt permitted to play up. Also, parents don’t realize the level of play is increasing thus making it that much harder. A reality check is coming for a lot of people.[/quote]
