Why not just go to thr best tournaments and forget all this banter over holdbacks. If your LI team comes down and beats my son's MD team that has 7 repeat kids - my son not one of them - then more a power to you. Coaches know your kids' s birth dates. If the coaches want 19 year old freshmen there isn't anything to say. Play the game or go to a school that is less inclined to focus on repeat kids (UNC, UVA). Like Duke and Syracuse. And oh, which teams played for the NCAA title last year again? Bottom line is by the time these kids are 18 or 19, the spread for physical advantage is gone. Maybe Breschi and others will see that soon before too late. UNC has not smelled an NCAA championship in the last five years and won't for the next five. 45 former U-15 studs and one ball.
