2011 Girls

[Guest]

2011s are the ones most affected by a potential GY change st this point in time. Makes sense to touch on it here. Also makes sense to keep the bulk of the discussion in the other threads.

We get it your kid is rl and your wishing upon the stars that the change will take her to nl. Unlikely to happen. Go spew your crappy change which isn’t happening somewhere else. Let’s leave this thread to chat on nl teams

Someone woke up as an azzhole this morning. If you’re a national team parent, I hope you’re not on my kids team. Hate to think there is a parent on our sideline who thinks like you.

Don’t think that’s being an a jerk. I think wishing a date change so that your kid can try and move up a to a nl team is being a jerk. In this case, there will be kids affected for sure. The by to whatever change (which won’t happen) would I’m sure negatively impact a few kids. So essentially everyone hoping for this change is basically saying as long as my kid is helped I’m good with it, I don’t care about anyone else. Which is typical terrible behavior. You don’t like that being pointed out? Too bad

Telling someone to "go spew your crappy change somewhere else" is most certainly being a jerk.

Regardless, there are kids who will be positively affected, and kids who will be negatively affected. Those families have biases and we can dismiss their opinions as such. However, look at the non biased opinions, and you are hard pressed to find a reason to stay as BY other than "change is disruptive in the short term". In the long term, there are benefits to the change. Some specific to ECNL (recruiting), some specific to U-littles (playing with your friends) and some universal (convenience of not having to deal with trap years). You don't have to benefit from the change to see these positives. IMO, however, don't think the change is imminent because I think the powers that be are near sighted and don't want to deal with the short-term upheaval. Full disclosure: My two kids birthdays are both in April and they will be impacted minimally regardless of which decision is made.

Everyone gets impacted by BY.
Ask those kids on the Stars 2011 teams who've lost playing time to 2010s this fall. Then again in senior year, two players will lose playing time to Fall players.
Change is hard but no pain, no gain.

Those kids wouldn’t ‘lose’ time if the change was made. They wouldn’t just be bumped down the depth chart permanently.

The easiest way to implement the change is to start at the U13 age group (whatever year they decide to do this) when they move to ECNL or GA and grandfather older teams. That would be the least disruptive to current teams and the ulittles will be forming and merging teams anyway.

Wrong thread,Go away. This thread is dedicated to angry 2011 nefc,scorpions and surf parents who bash the other clubs only to join them the next season. Then the two parents completely reverse and bash the clubs they once defended. The birth year debate is just a few threads away if you feel the incessant need to keep talking about it.

Ok. I’ll stay on topic. NEFC and Surf will still be in an irrelevant league regardless of how they cut the age. NEFC will still lose their best players next year regardless of how they cut the age.

I can't wait for the birth year change! We should definitely keep that discussion going just to annoy the guy that is constantly being a dick to everyone.

Honest question - what day do you expect the announcement? Will it be a gender reveal type situation where ECNL Live Streams a balloon popping type thing. Blue means we stay BY, Pink GY?

Blue means: Democrats won
Red means: Republicans won
Green: Grad year
Silver: Stays the same

its all so dumb.
but I hope it happens only to watch this 2011 thread lose their sh*t!!
The 11 parents are a special kind of crazy bossing coaches and clubs around for years with their cartel threats.
