Being able to go to Denver and being a legitimate 2020 (born after 05/01/2001 - for this tournament) are not the same thing. I have seen these kids close up, no way they are 13/14.
Cut off of 5/1/2001 is a joke and not a true 2020 team. A kid born 5/15/2001 should be a 2019 player. This was done to accomadate someone or some team.
Actually there are many summer birthday kids who are legitimate 2020s in Maryland. 2019-2020 was the year there was a change in Maryland law with respect to school age that took effect the year the class of 2020 was to begin kindergarten. Some opted to send their kids and have them on the young side and some opted to give those who were not socially ready yet because they did not anticipate the change in age to have some more time and seemed to affect kids born the summer of 2001. Our team is not going to Denver but has 3-4 kids born in the summer of 2001 that did not do pre-1 and were never held back.
