[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"A: School grade may be considered as part of the evaluation, but the decision to allow a player to play up is ultimately based on technical criteria including the player’s skill, maturity, and readiness for the older age group. Grade alone does not guarantee that a player will play up." This is boilerplate CYA language for when kids get pushed to a B team or C team because they aren't as good as the kids coming down. It's fine and to be expected. The language to focus on is "school grade may be considered".[/quote] Except if they were just going to do Aug-Sep by grade, they'd just say that. They didn't. They say it's a case-by-case evaluation with age and soccer skill as determinative. One club said those who really value grade have to specifically apply to tryout in that group. Now, there are a number of other clubs who are doing Aug-Sept by grade but they are more from USYS vs. top tier ECNL/GA.[/quote]
