Sad about 8U age cutoff
Our league has an all star competitive team. All the other local leagues use May 1 as the cutoff but this one uses Aug 31 to match little league league-age. It is coach pitch.
It means he’s not allowed to play in the 8U all star tournament. I get it but I did not want to play him up without all his second grade friends with 10 year olds (and older because people hold their kids back, I guess just like me) in 4th. I was unaware of the age restriction for all stars to LL league age.
I know it totally doesn’t matter but he would have loved the extra month of baseball and the competition. He dominated batting (obviously off his coach of course) and first all year. He even hit a coach pitch off a 200ft fence lol. He would have grown much more in kid pitch and we should have played him up.
Thats all just venting. Alas he loved it and his friends think he’s the goat.
