By the way... How many of those M&D girls will be playing on the older team when US Lacrosse enforces the 9/1/2002 - 8/31/2003 age group?
Two things. The answer to your question is 1. I assume you are a LI parent that buys the line of crap that you are fed by your club directors as to why you are losing to the teams from MD. Girls don't repeat grades like boys do, so you need to come up with another excuse. Maybe if the LI club directors could get along and start a spring league like MD has it would help. Instead, you guys choose to create and feed into a terrible lacrosse environment that helps no one other than parent egos.
Secondly, US Lacrosse has not power to enforce that. Those are just guidelines. Just like the guidelines were U9, U11, etc up until these new guidelines were released. They can only enforce those ages at tournaments they run and nobody goes to any of those anyway. Other than YJ and TG flying all over the country every year to play each other at the U15s.
