The number of kids on Crabs 2019 who will not qualify for this tournament is just a few. They will be close to full strength.
As you know each and every player makes a difference and that difference is what separates the great from the good and winning from losing. It doesn't matter if it's only one player the playing down in age is ridiculous and will be stopped soon.
If it's a grade based event with no age restrictions, then the Crabs (or any other club) is not "playing down". Whatever any event is, a team can be accused of cheating only if they are not following the rules.
Bingo! The rules from beach lax state that "placement on a grade based team...is dictated by the highest grade of any player on the team". With several 8th graders that would make them a 2019 team - this fact has been overlooked.
It was after school was out. So those kids who are holdbacks are in the class of 2020. They didn't break any rules.
"It was after school was out..." - not for everyone. In my book, you are not an 8th grader until you actually start 8th grade (for the first time). Obviously a gray area, which seems to be where the crabs operate best.
