Most school districts start their school within a couple months of each other. Earliest is Sept 1 and latest Dec 1 . That is all thru the nation. Make it Sept 1 to Dec 1 or whatever you want for your community within that range. US lacrosse could come out with something like that .

That is the way it was for years. NY teams were a month or two younger than MD teams. Wasnt that much chatter.

What is going on now at youth is totally out of control with ages.

Even a few years ago when you had the U9, U11, U13, U15 ...First year you were going against older players, next year you were on the older side. The late birthdays did sometimes struggle, but with holdbacks, the late birthdays are never going to get on a good youth team.

Now, holdbacks are always the oldest the entire time of youth.
