2019 to 2016 are all recruiting age teams starting this summer. The kid has to play on the team he plans to graduate high school with. The recruiters read the teams name and year and recruit those kids with a plan based on the years tell they will be able to attend their college. Does it suck for the kid who was bumped to blue or cut because of it yes you are correct. I agree any year below the high school teams a reclass kid playing down is cheating but from 2019 to 2016 not a chance its cheating its just the way it is.
