Turtle kids are almost 2 and a half years from playing their first college game. then the age will not make a difference, and your holdback will be faking an injury to gain another year because he sucks.
Keep telling yourself that. The age difference dissappears in HS, by Jr year if you can't be competitive, your in trouble. Did you forget that Turtles have holdbacks? Stop whining, Turtles lost there dominance. You can blame it on anything you want, those are the facts!
If the age difference disappears, why are the holdbacks that are so good not playing up and still playing down? Makes no sense. The argument goes both ways. The holdbacks aren't any better and aren't ready for college if they are still playing against younger kids. Ridiculous statement. Check your kid and see how he does against his own peers and those two years older- than tell me HS age is still a non factor. Your holdback will be in for a shock when HE gets put in a pool of kids 2-4 yrs older. The non holdbacks have been doing that for years! Best rise to the top, the weak play younger.
