Late birthday ... going to be an issue unless your son is big for his age. You may not notice it much at 2d grade, but by the time he is in 6th, the holdbacks approaching two years older (and two years larger, and faster, etc.) will be everywhere in travel lacrosse. Many age appropriate kids excel on the field in their age appropriate grade, but realize it will be difficult.
