Its not done. For obvious reasons. Can you imagine the travel parents on here paying for a tournament and showing up and little 8th grade Larlo is playing a team of 19 year olds? They think they can get away with this with rec kids. Whoever said the theme is contempt got it right.

"Play the games" guy...obviously works for Valor.

I'm a referee. I work for Sharon and Tarey and Jesse and other assignors in the area.

And I work for Soccer America.

Not just 2005 mixed up with 2009s, but all star players mixed up with regular rec players. That is way too much of a strength/skill difference.

Will they have the ambulance standing by in the parking lot.....?

My HS senior would refuse to play if he showed up for a game and the other team was in middle school. That's absurd.

(That link looked like U17 and U16 combined, no U18s or U19s). Are there tournaments that combine 2005s with 2008s?

I think you are calculating wrong. My 2010 just finished 8th grade. The late fall 2010s just finished 7th

That's correct. So the Valor tournament has 2005 teams playing against 2009 teams.

Jan 2010 would be the start of U14.

The legitimate all star tournament schedule was posted.

Did an SYA rec team beat a Great Falls travel team in that tournament? SYA doesn't have travel teams anymore.

It looks like they beat a club team that plays in NCSL U15 Div 5.

Yeah sure. 🙄

Yeesh ... just play the games.

^^The issue among many other issues is lying to regular rec team coaches to try and trick them into agreeing to coach their teams in this tournament. As well as lying to All Star coaches and players that this will be an "All Star" tournament and you will be playing "All Star" teams and then just putting out brackets with all the types of teams and ages jumbled up.
