It's safe to conclude that USL is a toothless organization with no true intention of addressing the holdback epidemic. Quite simply, anything they perceive to restrict the growth of the sport, will not be touched. Sad, but true. In the meantime, one thing that can be done, is for teams to list the birth month and year for their players. Obviously no names, just, for example: 2 boys 8/01, 4 boys 10/01, etc. Clearly there will be teams that are willing, though most probably not. But at least we can call them out on it.
