What is the issue with a 1998 brithday for a 2017 kid? US Lacrosse definition of eligibility is clear - born on or after September 1st. BTW - I have no dog in the fight, in fact I live in NJ.
The issue here is a kid who repeated a grade and is now playing on a 2017 team, when last year he was a 2016 player.
U15:
All players must be 14 years old or younger on the August 31st preceding competition. It is recommended that when multiple teams exist within a program, the program should consider physical size, skill, and maturity when organizing teams.
Right from the US Lacrosse website. We keep going over and over this.
With their current roster there are several kids on the Terps that will not be eligible for the U15 National Championships in 2014 according to US Lacrosse guidlines.
But whatever, good luck to them. Worry about your own kids.
