To all the holdbacks out there, THIS ^^^ succinctly blows away any other argument about reclass. But to beat a dead horse about reclassification

-is it illegal? no
-is it a competitive advantage? Yes
-did most kids who went on to the top lax colleges benefit from reclasisng? Yes but…
-do most kids who reclass benefit? No
-is there a difference between an age discrepancy in middle school lax and high school lax? Absolutely yes so to all the people saying you play older kids in high school, it’s just not the same for grade schoolers
-do high schools have freshman and JV teams? Yes
-is it worth the money? No

It’s not wrong or illegal to reclass. But let’s call a spade a spade: they just couldn’t excel at their own age group.
