By the way, this is from the HOCO rules. It appears that the commissioner will know how old the kids really are.
CONFERENCE APPLICATION & ROSTERS
Rosters are to be submitted on the official roster form by January 15th. This includes the Howard County Lacrosse Program who organizes select/travel teams and places these teams in the Conference.
Each player's full name, date of birth, school, grade, parent’s cell number and jersey number must appear on this form. Incomplete rosters will not be accepted. Rosters must be emailed to the Conference Commissioner at dethompson@howardcountymd.gov
Who cares. Of course they know how old the kids are. But since the divisions are grade based, it makes no damn difference how old they are.
US Lacrosse has, for 2016, in "Age & Eligibility guidelines" the following: "Grade-based competition: For leagues or associations in which some or all teams choose to organize by grade, those should be single-grade teams and should play in the age division determined by the oldest player on their roster' Not sure this will come into play or have any meaningful impact on the HOCO league, but knowing some club teams have several older holdbacks it may, but I doubt it.
