[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If this is your logic then it is clear you lack the ability for inference Basing a conclusion on 2 out of about 500 clubs is unwise.

If you read all of Penn Fusion, it's clear they are talking about grade for those who neatly align. For exceptions, it's really case-by-case.

"Selected players may be asked to play in an age group different to their school grade for developmental reasons per the Technical Staff (*only if their DOB allows this).

Academy/Travel:

Playing up may be an option for select players, for developmental reasons only.

These ‘select’ players will be contacted by the Technical Staff ahead of tryouts.

Communication will be only initiated by the Technical Staff to families (not in reverse order).

Rec Players:

Players may only ‘play up’ if it aligns players with their appropriate school grade."

I think it's pretty straightforward.  Playing up making sense when kids are playing with grad year, which will mainly impact a small number of Aug/Sept kids.  Most of the kids from Aug-Dec will be in the grade below, but many will still want to stay with their existing teams, and clubs don't want all of those parents contacting them asking for special exceptions.  That's why they have this language to discourage parents from bugging them.[/quote]
