[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You think you can sneak by all the rules and do your own thing. This might work when kids are young but there are repercussions and eventually you'll be forced to align into a standard. Assuming that you want your kid to participate in things like High School or College. [/quote]The gist of the original post is that ECNL is moving to school year, 8/1, limited playing up for best, latitude to play up on secondary teams to play with friends as stated in league and club announcements.

College coaches told clubs they don't care about your age group, they take the best players from transfers to International to kids on good youth teams and bad youth teams and have to evaluate them all, like they do now.

No repercussions for playing on age in fact it's beneficial. Oldest have best shot of becoming best and youngest best shot of quitting based on the relative age effects. Cumulative benefits of being the best adding up over the year (the Matthew Effect) gives players the best chance to be their best and least chance to quit when older and the physical differences among the kids in age groups decreases to a minimal amount.

The fact that you are trying to convince others to make uniformed decisions based on your opinion shows how much you need that August girl of your DD's team and don't have the best interest of August kids.

It's a week or so from March, top teams have been created, it's over.[/quote]
Ask any college coach on planet earth and they will say players are recruited according to their graduating year aka grade in school.[/quote]

Imagine being so proudly ignorant and shortsighted, but loud

Players are recruited by their skills, potential and family 
Graduation year is for administrative purposes [/quote]
