My son is at a private school, starts and isn’t a holdback. The other gentleman’s argument is clear: reclassing is for boys that cannot handle on-age competition. Fact
If your kid is a dominant player on age you wouldn’t hold them back. Very easy for everyone to understand but impossible for Holdback Lax Bro Dads to admit.
So explain how all these holdbacks are dominating college lacrosse? That’s a fact! Sorry to hurt your feelings
As someone else already said, to be a dominant d1 lacrosse player, you have to hold back. But the problem is the majority of holdbacks don’t go in to be a dominant player. You are so myopic you are only looking at the numerator and not the denominator. And as been already said, it’s lacrosse. A niche sport that the majority of the world doesn’t care about. Why would you holdback a year in this sport. Pride makes you do silly things sometimes. My feelings aren’t hurt my kid didn’t become a superstar as an on age athlete. He is doing quite fine.
