Thanks! I’m sure the crazies are saying this is fake, but what are the majority/realistic people saying?

As part of our ongoing evaluation and alignment with national platforms and leagues:
ALBION Boys will transition to school year registration (August 1 - July 31) in alignment with MLS NEXT AD, Elite Academy, and SOCAL League.
ALBION Girls will transition to school year
registration (August 1 - July 31) in alignment with the Girls Academy and girls' development leagues.
At ALBION our goal is simple: All players to be challenged, supported, and given opportunities they need to maximize growth. This includes training and playing games with multiple teams and age groups to accelerate development within the ALBION pathway.

Can someone copy and post the wording from the MLS email/image here? I can’t click on it to read.
Thanks

PPs are correct. DC is B team. I wish I had known 5 years ago what a disservice this does to a kid who really loves the sport. Other players are not as committed, practice and game intensity is not high, coaches not great. Some actually harmful. And too late to make up the gaps by HS. It's sad. My kid was very late in growth and strength development and if we had had biobanding, it sure would have helped. Doesn't exist for girls.

It's not interesting, just MLS Next clubs saying they are planning to change registration systems for everyone anticipating that MLS Next is changing, which is obvious to literally everyone that they are.

Anything is more interesting than crazy August guy.

Have you thought about where you intend to cry when you finally accept that your kids club wont play players on grade down on A teams.

I’ll just hold my kid back…. See you on the pitch.

Yeah, homeschool/virtual school can be a beautiful thing.

Fine, that works for me. Your kid would be playing on the correct grade in school team.

In America, and welcome, it doesn't matter if you agree or disagree with what the PP is doing because they can do anything they want within the rules.

Within the rules is SY 8/1-7/31 with a rule that youger players must play on. a team thats their grade. If your Homeschooler fits in the eligibility window no issues.

We don't get to make up our own fake rules. Post a link for the forcing kids to play up or drop it.

Nope tough guy.

Either way clubs will group A teams with players that are all a single grade. They'll do this because it will help players to get recruited which is free advertising for the club.

Opinions carry weight when you provide evidence, otherwise it's just pissing in the wind. Not forcing players up.

Prove that having Aug Sept birthdays play on a team A or B thats their grade is bad in any way.

BTW all your USNT RAE info is garbage because it doesnt take into account development that occurs on a B team with players multiple ages and skill sets.

Unless the B team plays in the same league, 9x out of 10, the B team sees much slower play and may get a coach who isn't as qualified. Typically, when tryout times comes around, the most competitive clubs don't draw from that B team. They look to pull in from the outside. Best B team players then look to leave if they can or maybe they quit, except for the ones who truly love to play and who may stay, especially as they play in HS. That's reality. Still, seeing the dreams die, it could be a country ballad.

That is why some players choose to bioband to play down in a younger age group just to stay in the A team.

Being on the 2nd team compared to the 1st team when starting out can be a demovitvator. Kids on top teams getting praise can have a synergistic effect and they want to do side work also.

Nobody cares about your "demotivator" nonsense. Play on the B team and get better or dont.

Better to be on 1st team.

This is perfect for younger players that arent big enough to play on the A team yet.

Not when they can fit even better on the A team in their AGE group! Those youngers would get lost on those B teams and little playing time.

Are you kidding me. You think a player will be lost on a B team thats their grade in school but able to contribute on an A team a grade younger.

Ridiculuous. Youre just saying dumb things to say them now.

See how it works you can try to scam the system with homeschooling but it wont let your kid play on a younger team.

Ok, fine then. Private school it is!

Great go, nobody is stopping you.

If youre looking to cheat by playing down against youger players private school is setup for this.

As long as its within the rules, it's not cheating.

Fine, go play at a private school.

Stop wasting all the club parents and players time.
