What is wrong with that? If the player is going to play against better competition what’s wrong with that?

Playing up, no one cares, except maybe the player on the older team that loses playing time. Basically building an all star team. I guess if other teams had the same opportunity to do it, fine. But if you were one of the displaced players, probably not very happy.

Playing down, cheating.


stinks to get displaced, but it’s not cheating if playing up.

I’d go as far to say that any kid can play in any tournament, for any organization or multiple organizations, as long as the player is not playing for two competing teams in the same bracket and following age/grade rules of tournament or otherwise specified by the tournament. But typically it’s never specified otherwise.

Again, stinks to get displaced but this is not cheating.
