"Something magical does happen. It's called growth. Both physical and emotional. Seventh graders do not belong on a varsity team."
And another idiotic statement from Powder. Where did you get your medical degree, yes kids grow from 7-8, 8-9,9-10 and so on thats the point ,kids mature and grow at different rates and ages and some kids mature earlier that others both physically and mentally . Why do you think you have a better grasp on what age some kids will have the maturity and skill level to participate in high school sports more so than the pediatric medical doctors, athletic directors, educators etc that were involved with writing the selection classification guidelines.Amazing that you know whats best for every seventh grader in NY and that in your simpleton mind there is some magical line drawn in development between seventh and eighth grade.
