Heard Team Long Island is going by US Lax rules so kids actually can play down if they have a late birthday instead of grade level.....how does this help your child grow as a lacrosse player. If they are decent players and play down then my feeling is they could dominate. Other than boosting ones ego how does the child grow as an athlete?
It is not playing down or up! It is actually playing with his age according to US lax . There are plenty of kids that are just as old or older who have been held back a grade by their parents playing in the same age bracket. What is the difference? This is the only way to get the kids who are the same AGE playing together! Just like every other sport does it. It doesn't matter what grade you are in.
