Reply to "Should high schools grant two additional semesters of eligibility?"

Whenever I see a post about a "young 15" or concerns about a 19 year old player I roll my eyes.

High school is 19u. College is 23u. Either you’re ready or your not. My son has a May birthday. I never thought he was playing up in travel while playing with his grade Or up two years when he went to 17u. From an eligibility date deadline he was. Once he grew from 5’4” to 5’11” from 8th grade to freshman year there was no longer anything different to see on the field between him and other players.

Worrying about when your kid’s birthday falls is just an excuse. If it matters that much people should have planned their kids to be born in the fall.
