Just because you are a holdback it doesn’t mean you are an impact player.

Sometimes the on age players are the ballers. Go on YouTube and watch a tigers XXVI game if you don’t believe me.

Their team was put together solely to participate in WSYL and they destroyed a holdback Madlax team this past fall.

Now when a team goes from being non competitive to a top two team overnight like the Crabs did, then you know the holdbacks they added are the big difference.

So if your team is great because of your holdbacks, enjoy your time in the sun. It will vanish in less than 24 months and we will be having a different conversation then about who the best teams are.

Am I wrong?

Let’s hear from the parents with older boys that have already been through the puberty journey.

Didnt Tigers also get destroyed by Sweetlax and LI Express?


Two teams that also do not have holdbacks. New York teams with mostly public school on age kids. Typically not held back until they repeat 8th grade.


Gotcha. So holdbacks are ok if you do them like that.
