[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to think it was about parents wanting to give their own kid a benefit over other kids, but now I think it is more about parents doing the only thing they can do (red shirt their kid) in response to a changes to education that have made kindergarten much more academic and therefore increasing the number of children who are simply not ready. [/quote] Really hard to parse the issue out. [b]In most states, you cannot play high school sports your senior year if you turn 19 before the school age cutoff date. If you changed that rule to 18, ii would wager. [/b]wager red shirting would be limited to the kids who are truly outliers and need it. Right now, red shirting is a mostly a cost less option with only upside to the red shirted child. [/quote] DC allows 19 year olds to play sports. [/quote]
