1. I heard it was discussed at length. Lots of noise about what the outcome of the discussion was.
2. HoCo put out its 2023 rules without age-based stipulations. So there is that.
3. They could theoretically change their rules, but the elite club directors would whine bigly about it, as they'd have 100 days or less to re-configure their teams to age-based. There are numerous holdbacks in the current 2029 and 2030 classes, so it's not just about 2028s and 2027s.

If anything, I could see HoCo adding an early warning that Spring 2024 will be age based. But I do not recommend holding your breath for that.

And then the 2028s will be in HS, 90 days after 2024 Hoco ends. Well, those who don't holdback for a 2nd 8th grade year.
