[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone explain what the new rule would be? Cause I don’t get how it would keep a school year group of kids together. Maybe I’m being dense. My kid has an April birthday. His friend has a September birthday and they are in the same grade (born the same year). Would they remain on the same team? It sounds like my kid with the April birthday could be pushed “up” to an older team and his friend with the September birthday could be pushed “down” to the younger team. Is that correct? [/quote]

April birthday would remain in same U whatever.  September birthday of the same year would be U whatever minus one.  In most school districts that September kid with same birth year who is currenly in the same grade has either failed a year or the parent redshirted him for kindergarten.[/quote]

September is a mixed bag as many school districts are 8/31 or 9/1 or 9/30

So those born in september either just make the cut off or just miss it. [/quote]
