Below is the same info. But I've removed July 31st because its not needed (leagues allow playing up) and added in grade and game type. This is the information that parents need. Its ironic that we're changing from BY to SY because of trapped players and grade in school. But US soccer wont include grade in school on its matrices.

11v11 = U18/U19 = 8/1/2007 + younger = Senior
11v11 = U17 = 8/1/2009 + younger = Junior
11v11 = U16 = 8/1/2010 + younger = Sophmore
11v11 = U15 = 8/1/2011 + younger = Freshman
11v11 = U14 = 8/1/2012 + younger = 8th grade
11v11 = U13 = 8/1/2013 + younger = 7th grade
11v11 = U12 = 8/1/2014 + younger = 6th grade
9v9 = U11 = 8/1/2015 + younger = 5th grade
9v9 = U10 = 8/1/2016 + younger = 4th grade
7v7 = U9 = 8/1/2017 + younger = 3rd grade
7v7 = U8 = 8/1/2018 + younger = 2nd grade
4v4 = U7 = 8/1/2019 + younger = 1st grade
4v4 = U6 = 8/1/2020 + younger = kindergarten[/quote]Grade doesn't equate perfectly (=) to birthdates. Always been the problem. Age based is not grade based. Kids go to school at different times, get held back, bounce grades and sometimes go to schools without grades. Birthdays are factual. More importantly, the rules are set by DOB.[/quote]
The problem is college coaches recruit by graduating year aka grade in school. Which is why you want to play on the correct grade in school team.[/quote]But they said they don't care what age group you are in, just be the best player you can be. Remember, the youngest quits. Seems like what you want that Aug kid to do instead of taking your kids spot.[/quote]
NCAA Division I and II soccer, college coaches generally begin initiating phone calls, emails, text messages, and direct messages on [b]June 15 after a player's sophomore year of high school[/b]. Prior to this date, coaches can only send general camp information or non-recruiting materials[/quote]So your saying that misaligned players can't contact college coaches? Too stupid.[/quote]
