No girls in MD doing this? pre-first is a almost a requirement there for the privates. Come on man.


You're completely off base here. Pre-first is much more prevalent with the boys than the girls due to slower development. It is very rare when girls go to pre-first. All the boys schools have prefirst while the girls schools don't.


Then just answer this question: How many girls on your daughter's club team would not conform to the new age-based cutoffs? For 2019's that is birthdays between 9/01/2000-8/31/2001. You will say you don't know, but I promise you there are more than a couple. For our team there is exactly 1. She stayed back and repeated 8th grade when she transferred to private. M&D -- want to venture a guess? I would bet at least a third of the roster, and likely some of the "best" players.
