The approximate DOB is correct, late 2001, so he technically should be 2019. Had the parents chosen to start him late it would have been their prerogative. They didn't. They chose to have him repeat 5th grade so that he would be eligible to play with 2020 CRUSH and arguably get the best coaching/training available to any kid. No problem here, parents choosing what they feel is the best path for their talented son. The problems arise when ill-informed CRUSH mommies and daddies deny that their team has hold-backs and red-shirts just like their competitors. Stop being hypocritical and blaming comparitive age every time you fail to blow an opponent out by what you benchwarmer parents deem to be a sufficient amount. Yes he's talented. Yes he's a great kid. Yes he is U12 age eligible. Yes he red-shirted 5th grade.

that is an outright LIE these boys did not repeat fourth grade. Please remember you are attacking CHILDREN WHO CHOOSE TO PLAY THEIR SPORT WITH PASSION!!!
Perhaps you're just jealous that your kid can't hang with boys like that.


Again, LIE!
Neither of those boys repeated a grade! The face-off kid likely belongs in 2019, but only by a few days, look at his size. He is small and will be lucky to break 5'5". If his parents decided before he went into kindergarten to hold him because of a close cut off birthday that is their proogitive.
This is why AGE based tournaments are important!
