Perfect post, thank you. I am yet to hear a valid argument against age based club teams and events. Reclassify for whatever reason and be a freshman again or later, but for club you should play your birth year without complaints. I am yet to hear or meet a parent of a reclassified kid who does not think his kid is a D1 level player. Well, D1 level talents should have no troubles at all hanging with their age year peers in club events.
