who would be opposed to this rule change regarding holdbacks...
#37
We also sometime automatically assume that a kid is held back because he is big Mayfield 7th grade is really big as big as most 8th grade teams our defensive lines had 3 kids all over 5ft9 and 200 lb. My son has a growth hormone imbalance and is 5ft9.5 and 300lb with a size 13 shoe. All of these kids are age appropriate but in a small town you hear oh he had to be held back. Most the time the kids are held back.to grow enough to not be at a disadvantage size wise when they go into the next grade not because they are already big and they want him to get bigger. Kids hit puberty early or later sometimes.kids can hit puberty as early as 8 or as late as 15. Believe me a kid who hits puberty late can be at a huge disadvantage strength and size wise Should that kid be punished by being forced to sit out?
