Who wants their kid to be classified with a group that needs to play down to get looks? The Crabs are using the kids as pawns to boost business, but are only getting them recruited playing younger kids. Look at what happened in Denver. Good coaches, clubs and talented kids don't need to play with younger kids to stand out.
I would like someone to go through all the 2018 verbals on the list and count the reclass kids. I am going to say 50% if not higher started school late or have reclassed. It works I always go back to the Hockey study that showed the older kids make it to the NHL. Another way is to look at the birthdays of all the MLL players. I am sure that will work out to show it works to reclass. When it stops working reclass will stop happening.
Depends on what your goals are for your children. If it is purely to get into college and play lacrosse at the expense of what is considered by most to be good sportsmanship and responsible, then that is your choice but do not keep justifying the fact that does not take into account anyone else but your little junior and knowing he was not good enough in his own age group.
