Parents definitely do this, so it's not bull s%&t...
Pretty funny to look back at this discussion from 2013. There were people who legitimately didn’t believe holdbacks purely for lax we’re a real thing.[/quote]

It is actually fun to look back at this. Holdbacks, reclass, prefirt and not starting kindergarten are at epidemic levels in lacrosse. All sports have some, but lacrosse has the largest percentage playing at a high level High School and Club top teams . Football , Hoops, Baseball have their share, but nothing like lacrosse. Pretty sad, but much of it is just many attempting to catch up to private school holdbacks.

Private schools from MD to MA have been holding back boys for years from kindergarten ( hilarious how they say that is not a holdback) to reclassing many at 8th grade who enroll for first time.
