However, it does not give the player the RIGHT to play younger kids based on this advantage. It is within the rules argument is silly. The majority of the US can understand what 8th grade age is and what it is not. Taken to the logical conclusion, why not have 17-18 year old players play? It is a shame because many of these 2022 age players playing 2023 are outstanding players and could play either age. I think being the older kids that other parents snicker or comment about behind their back is not worth the 15% discount to play at Tufts.


The real shame and embarrassment are the holdbacks playing at the AAA, AA, A and even B levels.


Are you on this forum too? Gawd you are a sad little man and probably take the joy out of eating ice cream. Move on, you aren't winning and aren't going to.
