[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a parent of an Aug. My kid prefers to play  with his grade because it suits him better socially and I think it makes sense too as he is the strongest and fastest on his BY team. But I fully understand another Aug parent on our team to put his son in a lower grade team as his son is late in his puberty, small, sitting on the bench on our team most of the time.[/quote]
Do you believe less talented Aug birthdays playing down should be on A teams or should they be put on a correct grade in school B team?

This is the issue. If they're playing down on an A team players and parents would look at that player as stealing a roster spot from a kid in the correct grade.[/quote]

I will tell you the reality, for stronger/starter players' parents who kids playing time is not affected, they will be very happy about their team is getting stronger because this give them more bragging power on how strong their team is and show off their rankings. The only unhappy parents are the ones whose kids' spot got 'stollen'.[/quote]You just described Mr Aug poster. He is mad because an August girl a year up is about to take his daughter's spot on her team. He invented this must play on grade team thing to help his DD. She must play goalie because on a team if you were good enough to start, coaches usually just switch your position. And for girls usually 2 out for the year with knee injuries so starting spots open up no matter what.[/quote]
