Another troll this time taking parental shots at people they have no knowledge of whatsoever. It must be heck to live in continual detest and discontent.

Parents are free game - especially ones who ……

Maryland seems dysfunctional. Holding kids back in school for lacrosse? Acting like no one should call you out that your kid is 1-2 years older than everyone else? Guess what your kid isn’t super talented, he’s just older!

Every holdback will have turned 13 by August. Two thirds of them will have already turned 13. Get over it.

I am opposed to the current holdback status quo BUT...........it doesn't matter and it pervades the sport....and it's increasing across the country as well. Guess what, there are boys playing at every HoCo bracket for 2028s that are already 13 years old. For a fact......... at Elite, 4A, 3A, and A. Assume there are some at AA too. "Why" and "When" the kids were held back is semantics, because they aren't forced into birth year slots and that's the end of it.

And guess what, these boys are middle schoolers now. If they aren't playing for a school team with older kids, they will be soon. Any changes to the rules of the game (highly unlikely) would go into effect with the 2032s or 2033s, if it happened today.

TLDR......get over it. Everyone who doesn't benefit from it hates this part of the sport. Oh well.
