Sage, Can we get some clarification here? 2022/U10/4th grade means the kid is born no earlier than 9/01/2003? thanks
The age group table follows and rolls forward each year in August.
Your question mixes two concepts : grade/graduation level (Class of 2022, 4th Grade) and U-age groups (U/10). This is the entire crux of age group debates (excluding children "left back" or "held back"). In most school districts, grade cut off dates are December 1st (although this can vary by district) and for U-age groups, the cutoff date is September 1st.
Worst casing from 2022/4th Grade and U/10 would be the U/10 case. All U/10 players must be born on or after September 1st, 2003.
