So does that mean that 2020 Crush players born after May 2002 (8th graders) who never played for 2021 - will now be 2021 players for this tournament. How does that make sense? They are not hold backs - not part of the team?!

Also, for teams that don't qualify do their top player become free agents to play for a team that qualified - as long as they are within 100 miles. How does that make sense.
