Okay, It's my understanding that if your son is 16 before May 1 2012 he is a 16u player correct? If it falls after may 1 2012 he is 17 or 18u correct? Atleast for Arizona. Is it the same for all states?

Sounds like it's backwards. Born before May 1, it would be 17 or 18U and after May 1, 16U

Would it make any difference what style of haircut they have?

Well Zomby, I'm thinking if he is 16 prior to May 1 st he is 16u. After May 1st he turns 17 he then is 17u or 18u right or wrong?
Whatever age a player is on May 1 will be his age for the remainder of the amateur baseball season (i.e, through the next April 30).
So if a player is 16 on May 1, and turns 17 AFTER May 1, he is still considered 16.
If a player turns 17 BEFORE May 1, he will be considered 17 for the rest of the summer (through the next April 30).
This is the same for all leagues that operate under USA Baseball.

Perfect Thanks!!!

You've got that right zomby. I was just hustling down I-95 towards Fredricksburg with a load of pekkerwood logs to sell when seemingly out of nowhere a big ol' red, white, and blue I-95 sign came flying right at the cab of my International 9400®. I stood on the brakes to avoid being tagged and look at the mess I made! I'm in the sleeper...wake me when it's over.

Does baseball ever use U(age), or is it always (age)U?
At 16U and above (high school age players) I think it's more important to start focusing on GRAD CLASS.
Most tournaments, ie PG, are listed as 16U or 2014 Grads, etc...
Here is one from PG for a 16U event: AGE LIMIT: 2014 Graduate or Born on/after May 1, 1995 GAMES
Other sanctioning bodies may just list tournaments as "underclassman" events so the age is totally thrown out the window.

Agreed. My son turned 17 soon after May 1st which makes him age 16. But since he is a 2013 he is playing 17u.
