Unfortunately Lacrosse has done the exact opposite. Many clubs encourage playing down a year thru prefirst/holdbacks/reclassify.

Yet a lot of club teams do this, basically out of need to stay competitive. All of this crap of holdbacks in Md. was started by none other that Ryan M of Crabs and the disgusting part is that he is proud of this and because his 2020 team is MUCH older than most all other 2020's he considers himself a great lax coach, which he isn't, he just pushes the limits to outright cheating.
