2010s born after 8/1 are most likely to be Sophmores next fall not Juniors. Which is why below is mathematically correct.

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
You got it wrong because , children born after August 1, 2010, will generally be entering 11th grade (Junior year) or 10th grade (Sophomore year). Not 10th or 9th. There will be many more 11th graders than 9th graders playing U16 next year.

This is why grade does not work in youth soccer. You want grade year and can't even get the statements correct.

lets see what Google has to say...


what grade in school will 2010 birthday kids born after 8/1 be in school this fall

+4
Children born in 2010 with birthdays after August 1st will generally be entering 9th grade (freshman year of high school) in the Fall of 2025. Since they turn 15 between Aug 2 and Dec 31, 2025, they typically fall into the grade level containing students turning 15 during the school year.

Birth Date Range: In most districts with a September 1 or similar cutoff, they fall into the cohort born between Sept 2, 2010, and Sept 1, 2011.

Appreciate the help. but Google is wrong on this one. This fall most 2010s born after 8/1 will be Sophmores.

Still 100% correct.

This is for next fall when SY starts.

Seems someone doesn't like when it is made clear that playing on age but with younger grade kids is 100 percent allowed. And as it turns out the only way they do age groups in the DMV is age only, no grades.

Hes just throwing a temper tantrum because math doesnt align with his wrong assumptions.
I don't know why anyone would throw a temper tantrum over someone pointing out that many kids will be a grade high than others in an age group. And in the DMV, clubs don't care about grade and will not let you play up anyway.

Hes also fighting against a calendar so that makes things difficult.

In the 2026–2027 school year, children born after August 1, 2010, will generally be entering 10th grade (Sophomore year) or 9th grade (Freshman year), depending on their specific birth month and your local district's cutoff date.

2010s born after 8/1 are most likely to be Sophmores next fall not Juniors. Which is why below is mathematically correct.

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
