No one cares if you hold your kid back to repeat a grade in school. What people are complaining about is a system that allows him to play lacrosse against younger kids because of it.

Kids should play youth sports - not school sports - against kids of similar age. A one year window (calendar year or sept to aug or something else) has been proven in other sports to work well. It shouldn't matter what grade they are in.
