First of all, on the boys side, it's a big safety issue. You have 15 and 14 yr olds playing down w 13 and 12 yr olds. The disparity in sizes and physical development is large. Secondly, it stops people from gaming the system. I don't know how one can argue that that is a bad thing. If your argument is, it happens everywhere, this can now be one place where it doesn't. All the other youth sports have gone this way with great success. Why r the lax crazies the only ones that can't stand to see the playing field leveled? What is it that you are afraid of?
