Oreilly's team is a true 2025 group of kids that played well this weekend.

Holdbacks are bad but at least within the horrible age rules as they stand. This matter of a 6th grade 2024 boy who plans to stay in that grade, born in 2006 and playing 2025 with the approval of Channy and the clearly abusive and sick parents is just taking cheating to another level.

If all the organizations formed teams based on WSYL dates, then so be it, but those are not the rules now and the Tournaments should prevent this.

I really do feel bad for the kid. He will have to carry this with him.



Please show me the rules that state it is ok for a boy born in 2006 but is in 5th grade to play?? Please produce that. and i will show you - us lacrosse age requirement that state any boy born after Aug.31st in 2006 pg 48 CAN play.

While USL has put out rules for age-based play, they have not yet insisted that teams, tournaments, clubs use age-based play yet. At this point, most of youth lacrosse is still grade-based. USL is a very weak governing organization - they are trying to gradually push towards age-based play, but not very hard, or at least not nearly as hard as they could - their phased-in approach is way too slow and passive. They could very easily force the hand by taking a position that clubs, tournaments, etc that are not age-based are not in compliance with USL and therefore lose all rights/benefits, specifically insurance.

Please Stop it 91 dad. Do you realize what you just said "hold backs are bad but at least within the horrible age rules as they stand" If the boy in question is within the horrible age rules(as you so put it) Aug,31st. Then who cares what Grade he is in??I know Its the parents that held back there kids that are making the biggest gripe.


Blast doesn't have any holdbacks. Theyre all on age 2025's and 1 2026 who won't be 10 until next year.

Simple question, is the kid in 6th grade. If the answer is yes (and it is), he should not be playing 2025.

And how did the cheating work out for you vs the Geese?

I am all for age-based play, but show me where there are age-based rules for non age-based (IE, grade-based play)? Your are citing rules for USL's age-based play, which is ONLY recommended. Each one of the sections for "Age and Eligitbilty" sections of the rules ONLY apply IF the team/club/tournament has adopted USL's age-based play, which for most games is not the case.

My son is in 6th grade--- but he's on a 2026 team. He's not very bright and I assume his glory days are with us now for a short period.

We will be held back in the future.....Maybe-- most probably.

I don't disagree with the choice. They had (as talked about here, which as we all know is not entirely accurate) a odd season last year, now have new coaches and I am sure new faces. Let them come together as a team before throwing then against the best. It's like some people can't to talk about them losing.

How about this weekend.. you bring signs and point the kid out? Maybe go with a bell and chant "Shame Shame Shame"

If not, SHUT UP!

Until you call his parents & Shammy out.. no one is doing anything. You really think the kid woke up and said, "Mom & Dad, can I play with the kids that's aren't my friends in school so you feel good about yourself"

i love how everyone talks about hold backs. Really. come on .. Been going on for years. makes a very small impact. There are plenty of kids that play up, and out paly the older boys.

Good thing hockey, baseball, basketball, soccer, etc, etc, etc - pretty much EVERY OTHER major youth sport - all didn't take your recommendation to "deal with it, stop complaining. <SIC> and move on". Get the point?!

School ball is always a mix between the years... in all sports, so stop please...Know what you are talking about. Club sports do the same. and Soccer is the only sport that just recently changed. to ... it all balances in the end..

The only ones that can stop it are the tournament organizers. USA lacrosse has not mandated a universal id card for players and as a result players play wherever their parents register them. If like soccer the kids that were playing lined up with their id cards in the center of the field and the referees checked them then it would eliminate the issue. This will not happen because its about getting as many teams to register for your tournament. Why as many teams because its a business. If a tournament put in the restriction of validated age per year born not graduation year many teams would be unable to play. Issue is if one tournament is asking for age verification there are 5 others on the same day that are not and as a result teams and whole programs will go to the tournaments not requiring the proof of age. Whats interesting is that USA lacrosse has something in place but are not willing to implement it. Most kids have USA lacrosse id numbers. So if a player is registered with US lacrosse they already have an id# and a means to create a system to monitor birth year play. Its that simple. If parents held US lacrosse accountable maybe they would not turn a blind eye to it. Most tournaments and events are US lacrosse backed with insurance so it would be simple to do.

My sons play for a different organizations, and no thoughts of moving, but the Outlaw clinics are generally decent and a good value.

School ball is always a mix between the years... in all sports, so stop please...Know what you are talking about. Club sports do the same. and Soccer is the only sport that just recently changed. to ... it all balances in the end..


Wow - trying to connect your response to the quoted post and just left scratching my head . . .

I feel bad for the kid, its the parents who allow this. Did they think they would sneak in and go unnoticed? The lax world might be crazy, but it's still a small community. Holdbacks are bad but at least within the horrible age rules as they stand. This matter of a 6th grade 2024 boy who plans to stay in that grade, born in 2006 and playing 2025 with the approval of Channy and the clearly abusive and sick parents is just taking cheating to another level.

If all the organizations formed teams based on WSYL dates, then so be it, but those are not the rules now and the Tournaments should prevent this.

I really do feel bad for the kid. He will have to carry this with him.



Please show me the rules that state it is ok for a boy born in 2006 but is in 5th grade to play?? Please produce that. and i will show you - us lacrosse age requirement that state any boy born after Aug.31st in 2006 pg 48 CAN play.

While USL has put out rules for age-based play, they have not yet insisted that teams, tournaments, clubs use age-based play yet. At this point, most of youth lacrosse is still grade-based. USL is a very weak governing organization - they are trying to gradually push towards age-based play, but not very hard, or at least not nearly as hard as they could - their phased-in approach is way too slow and passive. They could very easily force the hand by taking a position that clubs, tournaments, etc that are not age-based are not in compliance with USL and therefore lose all rights/benefits, specifically insurance.

The kid in question does not make the Aug 31. CUT OFF!!!!!!

Please explain this to me.

If the kid in question made the Aug.31st cutoff I would have no problem with that.

You are so wrong.This sport has grown so much in the last 5yrs.1 year makes a huge difference in youth sports. My kid has it! He Works hard and is very athletic. He plays other on AGE sports and stands out. He enjoys and shows his best skills at lacrosse. Yet only falls short to some of the hold backs. What I see out there, is 85% of the best players on the best teams but not all were born in 2006.

If you think holding back kids does not give them an enormous advantage then you are clueless. Why do it if there is no advantage?

Your quote holds no substance in this argument. We are not talking about High School sports. This is youth sports and should be age based. When its time to evaluate Johnny the young man for the HS team an determine if he should get moved up. That's fine.Until that time, I want him playing with kids his own age.No disrespect for the parents of hold backs for whatever reason you felt it necessary to hold them back. However, they should play sports with kids there own age.

Clearly there are too many on BOTC that have no clue about the differences between preadolescent, prepubescent, and pubescent stages and what they mean relative to athletics. There are so many studies related to this, easily available online that it boggles the mind that anyone would continue to argue against age-based play for preadolescent and/or prepubescent ages. There is absolutely ZERO arguments for grade-based play ta these ages.

I just hope that the kid isn't permanently damaged by the negligent and abusive parenting he must be subjected to.

Now you know there are quite a few boys on blast born in 2006. Talking out of both sides of your mouth

Quite a few? Nope, but there are one or two who are holdbacks with '06 birthdates. But it's a guarantee that there are no 6th grade boys like you now have so go sell your lie to your pals at Express practice.

It's interesting to me that Channy promotes his experience at the Naval Academy where they have a strict honor code. Then he has the stones and the lack of moral fiber that allows him to serve up this despicable bull crap.
