Exactly!! What other teams outside of Crabs have added 2025 to their rosters this year? Next year will be even worse with the holdbacks so expect more teams to add Older, Bigger kids.

So my guess is that North and East will each get 5 of the 20 teams. The remaining 10 from everywhere else. Like Reply Quote

Plus LI teams get an advantage because their school cutoff age is Dec 31 vice Aug 31 in pretty much the rest of the country, so there are some players who have been playing on their '25 teams that they bring down because they are age eligible for WSYL (9/1).

All good. I am not saying any of it is wrong, but dont act like it's just a club team playing in the WSYL when they are adding players with a 2 hour drive, cherry picking from other LI teams and bring down 2025 kids (which seems interesting since 2025 is playing as well, so I assume they arent difference makers). Also, you are wrong on the age/grade comment. Look it up. The majority of the country uses 9/1 Like Reply Quote
