2. Age Eligibility and requests for athletes to play down a division

   1. Per the boards discussion at the September board meeting, athletes whose parents wish for them to participate in a division lower than their age would otherwise permit based on our age eligibility set by our District 6 charter would be required to tryout in the appropriate division. This will provide the board and all stakeholders the opportunity to make an informed decision based on the parents wishes as well as take into account the athletes abilities. The decision to play an athlete down for the purpose of remediation will be made the day of the draft.
