Here is an email that was sent to a prominent Long Island Lacrosse Club this summer:

"My son is interested in trying out for your club – his birthdate is 5/30/2001, however he is going into 6th grade so his grad year would be 2020 even though he could be in the 2019 class by birthdate. Would he be trying out for the 2019 teams or the 2020 teams?"

Here is the response that was received:

"Thanks for the email. Everything we do is by graduation year. So he would be trying out for the 2020 team.

Our philosophy is that these are the kids that they will be playing with and against throughout college. Furthermore, they will be recruited to colleges by their graduation year, not by their birthdate.

Hope that helps clear things up."
