Hold backs or not there is an age limit for all participants.

I know one 8th grader that had to stop playing a week or two ago due to having a birthday.

As far as Whitley never holding back kids....is that something new? I remember watching them play 5 or 6 years ago and half of the 8th graders it seemed have full growth on their beards... a parent told me that at least a couple of those kids wouldn't be able to play their senior season due to being too old if they kept playing ball.

Thats pure B.S.
Holdbacks at Whitley arent really allowed anymore when its clearly for sports.
I know there was a kid that graduated in 06 that couldnt play his senior year because he was over 19 before Aug. 1st which is against the rules.

Also, Whitley doesnt have one single kid thats been held back for football.
Look at Whitley's starting QB in high school right now.
He actually stated school young and should be in 8th grade however hes a freshman. So we pretty much have and 8th grader as a starting qb on the high school team.
