When you hold your son back, you are telling him he isn’t good enough; you are telling the world as well.
To all the holdbacks out there, THIS ^^^ succinctly blows away any other argument about reclass. But to beat a dead horse about reclassification
-is it illegal? no -is it a competitive advantage? Yes -did most kids who went on to the top lax colleges benefit from reclasisng? Yes but… -do most kids who reclass benefit? No -is there a difference between an age discrepancy in middle school lax and high school lax? Absolutely yes so to all the people saying you play older kids in high school, it’s just not the same for grade schoolers -do high schools have freshman and JV teams? Yes -is it worth the money? No
It’s not wrong or illegal to reclass. But let’s call a spade a spade: they just couldn’t excel at their own age group.
detest to break it to you, but the facts lax on your little fantasy here. Look at every top roster at the best schools, all holdback prep schoolers, and here’s a tidbit of info, they’ll all do just great. This is a proven fact. Get over your under talented kid.
Comprehension hard for you huh? It is actually spelled out in the post that all the top college kids have benefited from reclassing. It also spells out that the majority of those kids who do reclass do not end up at those colleges and don’t benefit.
Still don’t get it? If 10% of reclasses go on to do amazing things at those top d1 colleges that means 90% of reclasses don’t. So of course all those rosters are stocked with reclasses. What’s not shown are all the reclasses , which is the majority, don’t go on to top d1 schools.
I’m guessing your kid needed to reclass because he couldn’t keep up with his group. If he went on to one of those top schools then good for him. Chances are he didn’t and is stuck on the bench for some mid-low grade d1 roster
