Oh wow, it’s official already:
”The ECNL (Elite Club National League) is changing its age groups to match the high school graduation year, instead of the current birth year model, starting in the fall of 2025.”

Cool, so now my kid who was born in August won't be able to play with his grade since our school cutoff is Sept 1. This will have the complete opposite impact and tear his grade apart into 3 different teams.

“Our recommendation is in favor of the move with hopes of minimal disruption, said Skip Gilbert.” “We moved to Birth Year Age Group Formation in 2017, the uproar was palpable. Many Soccer Parenting groups have been firmly against the move for years now. Several grassroots groups developed social media campaigns against it, and we met in person with various U.S. Soccer leaders to voice our strong opinions about how irrational the move was for the vast majority of youth soccer players.”

Happy it is over, if you understand RAE, it wasn’t even an immediate solution! It would take a full generation of players for this to make a difference in scouting and Youth National Team performance! When someone from U.S. Soccer informally asked me earlier this year about my thoughts on moving back to School Year Registration

Long overdue! Our registration process is a hot mess right now as many recreation leagues, when the 2017 change happened, opted to continue allowing recreational players (not affiliated with a regional or national league) to be grouped by the August 1 cut off. This validates the importance of the point above: playing with classmates matters. While having two cut offs (January 1 for competitive players, August 1 for recreation players) may not a big problem within a club, this poses a logistical mess on a national level. Organizations such as US Youth Soccer, US Youth Soccer, USSA, SAY Soccer and AYSO that ultimately register these players and are required to submit their information to U.S. Soccer on an annual basis are mired with a logistic mess of data.

Do you think that to had been interesting to hear this “College Recruiting will be Easier” reason being speculated all over Talking-Soccer.com as the primary reason for moving back to School Year Age Grouping. While the move to Birth Year was largely for National Team Scouting, I did not really see a move back to School Year Age Grouping being triggered because of the demands or college coaches, it’s just an added benefit.

Wait, now that we dealing with School Year fallout, how will they limit the disruption to players. The very first time I informally heard about a possible School Year Age Grouping horsesh*t, there was a secondary theme of limiting the disruption to the majority of players being paramount. I think we are always considering this controversial change to limit disruption by grandfathering older teams or having new policies regarding players playing up. I think it's also important to note that many players will be excited about this change and will want it as playing with their classmates is a priority. This is a very complex issue. The priority needs to be to keep children in the game.

There are still improvements U.S. Soccer needs to make and there is still a long way to go to forge trust and increase collaboration in the youth soccer ecosystem. A potential return to School Year Age Grouping can be an opportunity for the youth soccer ecosystem to come together to minimize the stress that will be felt by players, families, clubs and communities. If it happens, let’s all be sure we do our part to make that happen.
