Reply to "Parental Hold-back year.. NCAA rule???"

My son has a May birthday. He was 5' in 6th grade. It was obvious he was a late physical bloomer given my height, his mother's height and his sister was a late bloomer who grew to be 5'10". Given he was a top student I figured if there might be a benefit to being held back a year for athletic reasons it would be on the back end. If another year would have made a difference I would have sent him to a post graduate school for a year between high school and college. By junior year he was 6'1". Staying back would have been a waste of time.
