How is it possible that tournaments allow a program to register their teams down? Wouldn't liability issues preclude such a practice? Entire teams playing down is entirely different than individual players form a liability standpoint. [/quote]

It's because they're not technically "playing down". Many of their school system (it may be province-dependent) have an extra year built in.
2019 is a graduation year; to us it means 12th grade. To someone else it might mean 10th grade or college.
If you go to "13th grade" and then graduate in 2019, you are technically a 2019.
