I think you got that backwards my friend.

When I’m proven right which I will be just remember this scene from Batman.

"I never said thank you," to which Batman replies from the rooftop edge, "And you'll never have to".

So age guy is Mr USYS

Now we know why he's pushing for 36 month older players to play down.

Playing down is the only way C team players can compete against correct age/grade players.

Word of advice. Instead of trying to cut corners maybe USYS should focus on making clubs and teams better.

it's funny how people were having a conversation without grade and you had to non sequitur in your grade goal. grade never part of nwe sy.

You mean your conversation with yourself?

Sorry grade exists and when its applied to your 36 month older player playing down nonsese people quickly see why it doesnt make sense.

find a post where somebody wants more than 12 month age group other than you. you've failed this challenge over and over. makes u a hypocrite.

Age guy / mr usys has been trying to start a rumor that leagues will start doing GY showcases for almost a year.

High schools allow students to be held back two times. This means 36 month older players (2 years older ie held back twice) in GY.

BTW this is also why people are saying 16 year old Freshman and 20 year old Seniors.

What usually happens is crazy parents hold their kid back in middle school before attending high school. This gives their kid a potential 36 month advantage over the youngest Freshman.

So does your daughter have to compete with this older kid in their graduation year for college spots or not? You keep saying college recruitment is by graduation year.

Still 100% correct.

This is for next fall when SY starts.

11v11 = U18/U19 = ≤ 8/1/2007 ≈ Senior
11v11 = U17 = ≤ 8/1/2009 ≈ Junior
11v11 = U16 = ≤ 8/1/2010 ≈ Sophmore
11v11 = U15 = ≤ 8/1/2011 ≈ Freshman
11v11 = U14 = ≤ 8/1/2012 ≈ 8th grade
11v11 = U13 = ≤ 8/1/2013 ≈ 7th grade
9v9/11v11 = U12 = ≤ 8/1/2014 ≈ 6th grade
9v9 = U11 = ≤ 8/1/2015 ≈ 5th grade
9v9 = U10 = ≤ 8/1/2016 ≈ 4th grade
7v7 = U9 = ≤ 8/1/2017 ≈ 3rd grade
7v7 = U8 = ≤ 8/1/2018 ≈ 2nd grade
4v4 = U7 = ≤ 8/1/2019 ≈ 1st grade
4v4 = U6 = ≤ 8/1/2020 ≈ Kindergarten

Using U14 as an example what this is saying is...

1. They play 11v11
2. Players turn 14 after Aug 1
3. Players are younger than or equal to 8/1/2012
4. Players are most likely in 8th grade

4v4 = U6 = 8/1/2020 -7/31 (May include 1st grade/kindergarten/Pre-school)

Its not outright wrong but this version doesnt cover all potential edge cases.

Its also confusing because you have things that overlap like 7/31 and grade.

well what r the rules grade or dob? dob, right.

League rules list 7/31 but leagues allow playing up. Which means 7/31 is unnecessary and doesnt apply.
