Originally posted by Unregistered View PostNope, completely clueless. Unless you are obsessed with your child's 'u' designation, there is absolutely no change at all for boys already in DAP i.e. 2004 and older, none. You might have conconted some plans based on rumours but that is irrelevant. No change.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostLOL, sorry, it is you who is lost. Like I said, write out the birth year designations this year noting the years that are combined, slide them all up a year for next year. You'll see it follows the exact progression of one year passing, nothing has changed but the addition of the youngest age group. Try it, it will really clear things up for you!

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostSurprised they don't let the new U12 only teams added this year expand to U13 next year with this re-alignment. It's the same aged kids as this year's U12s (5th/6th graders), so why not let these younger kids stay more local for another year (playing the same group of local clubs as this year's U12s) before the hardcore travel kicks in?

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostOK then, hope Revs are ready to add another age group. I'm sure they'd rather outsource those '05s to their "alliance" partners. Seems to me bringing in '04s and '05s in one year might be a little too much for them to handle....

Unbelievable. Just like last year, now we are going to have thread after thread after thread about age groups / birth year designations. I'll get my popcorn ready.
The whole thing turns me right off to the Academy program. What a mess! For what it is worth my kid would likely not "make it" anyway (outside of a watered down "pre-academy for babies" type of program that we have now with this alliance stuff).
Everyone... unless your kid is a huge standout... have them stick to their books!

Little of this is surprising since DA had already said they were waiting a year to make the designation changes. And there has been talk of splitting age groups into single year for a long time.
