What team that is a split grade/age team plays by the youngest grade or age? Come on I don't believe you. Maybe if they had 2 or 3 older boys but the team was "MAINLY" young I could see it happen. Don't like that it might but could see it. But a team that is 1/2 one age/grade and 1/2 another I cant see adults being so irresponsible.

The rule for all tournaments is that the team has to play to their oldest player. In reality I know for a fact that a lot of teams play to their youngest player.

For example if a team this summer is split evenly between rising 9th and 8th graders they will play all their tournaments as an 8th grade team.
