The oldest child on The Hawks 2026 team turned 11 in July. He did not even play in the Express North game. Funny thing is, he is the smallest player on the team. There are in fact 5 players that are 11, the rest are 10. Most of the team are returnkng players from last year, and the core group has been there since the beginning 3 years ago.
Children go through growth spurts at different ages. It is sad that there were parents complaining as soon as the game started. Complaining that kids have calf muscles...seriously, that is your basis on how old a kid is? Aside from that, it was good to play a team such as those express teams. They a a talented group of boys with plenty of good lacrosse ahead for them.
My son is on a 2026 team and is still 9 the end of November.
