If they are in 8th grade this year, and repeating that grade for any reason, they are not eligible. Actually applies to anyone in 5th thru 8th grades beginning this year and after. So if in 5th grade last year and being held back in 5th grade again this year, not eligible this year. Make sense?

I've been told this rule will be in effect next season. As kids that had already held back this year before the rule was in effect were granted eligibility this season. Starting next year all players should fall under this rule.
