Dude the truth is people cheat. It is not pleasant to have kid miss out on starting ,beat out by a kid that shouldn't be there by a kid that you know repeated a grade for a fact because he was originally in another grade with your older son. This has happened twice to my kid with holdbacks who couldn't compete on grade at youth. One transferred to private to repeat and another transferred schools in the district to repeat. That kid steals all the reps in youth your kid sits because the other gets 13th grade. If you have limited means hard to overcome. There are only 6 attack, 6 defense , 12 middies and 2 goalies that will get to play in JV and V over 3/4 grades.
Am i the only person that thinks there is a mental issue with holding a kid back to play youth sports?
