They're talking about how with SY and aug birthdays playing up 99% of players on the field will be the same grade in school at showcases.

Last time, 5% of players were misaligned ... An average of 1 per team.

Maybe on B and C teams.

Not on A teams

Well, I'm seeing it happen now.

Not possible in BY

Just the delusions in your head and the things you make up and attempt to pass off as facts.

Club isn't collecting school grade info so they don't know who is where at school to single out August or September kids to stick it to them.

Arlington soccer collected grade info for all current travel players this year.

Serious and credible recruiting happens through individual direct player to coach contact

So now showcases arent good for college recruiting? Aug birthdays playing on their grade in school team have no issues.

Stop the nonsense.

August births will be fine, they are the oldest. It will be toughest for the youngest months, May, June and July. Focusing on August births is a red herring, as they will be doing after to play as the oldest and the will be a position to excel, grade is irrelevant.

You have no clue how college recruiting at clubs and leagues works. Aug birthdays playing down are at a serious disadvantage.

False. They are the oldest, so RAE increases their odds of going further. And college coaches said to clubs and on Facebook that they don't care ages of recruits. Heck your chart had August as the highest month to play male pro and Dec as the lowest.

Only a fool would believe you and want their kid to unnecessarily play up, get discarded and quit the sport.

RAE is about early physical bloomers getting selected to teams over smaller late bloomers, before puberty

Pull any roster of all the USYNTs in every age group and Q1 and Q2 are the most represented. You can't argue against the evidence.

Nowhere is there any scientific study that shows Q3 with highest youth representation.

Some guy in his basement created some chart showing August with the most representation is being beyond creative and artistic

The UK has high Q3 in top players and so did the US national youth teams under SY and was ironically a main reason to go to BY. Your belligerence is too obvious.

When they say "Relative Age Effect (RAE) is a phenomenon where individuals born just after a strict age-cutoff date (e.g., Jan 1 for sports, Sept 1 for school) hold long-term, systemic advantages over younger peers in the same cohort." To think that every RAE effect has to be around Jan 1 is too stupid.

What's a grade in school team? Never seen one

If you're at a showcase hoping to be discovered, you as a player and your parents failed in doing their legwork

Maybe Arlington cam help you. They ask for all travel players grade in school during tryouts.

Graduating class is definitely not the same thing as school year and clearly says older players as well. Hope it’s not true but this is definitely sounding like grad year showcases.

As other have said. GY showcases wont happen because its not good for clubs or leagues. Think about it. GY encourages holding your kid back in school. This is something neither leagues or clubs want to get involved with. On top of that playing down kills the concept of a team. Which means clubs will make less money when the cash cow paying customers get frustrated and leave because of older players playing down.

There's one parent that loves playing down trying to start a GY showcase rumor.
