The kid I was talking about was 14 after Aug. 1ST of his 7th grade year and wasnt 15 as of August 1st of this football season. but because he had repeated the 6th grade, before JCPS had tackle football in middle school he wasnt allowed to play this year. The rules say that if your 14 after August 1 of 7th grade year then your are eligable.

I dont think that if you are on grade level for your age and have never been held back then you should be fine to play. Some of these county schools hold these students back in elementary school so they can get around the rule of 3 years in middle school. That is what is wrong.
