over aged girls
Here Here Isaac,
The problem is that people ASSUME. It is human nature to fill in the gaps we have in our knowledge as or brains are un-easy with these gaps, however, when you assume, you make an ASS out of U and ME.


Mark,
I say put up or shut up.
If you have proof that the two girls in question are over age (ie not born in 92) and it is worrying you that much, then lodge a complaint with the club secretary.
A child born in 92 is typically in Yr 10, or is a young Yr 11.
Do your homework, hearsay is not proof!
Maybe they are just good players, although isn't there another club who likes to poach all the good girls?

First, I'm not a member/parent/whatever of the Magic. Just wanted to make that clear.
Second, my statement is based on by-law 2.3(a) of the Junior District By-laws (dated 15 Oct 2007), which states:
"To be eligible to play in an age group, a player must be under the age required on 31 December of the year in which the competition is to be completed."
I'm not aware of any change to this rule, hence my statement.

LOL
Can remember playing U16 (years ago!) against a certain club (not Magic) and while we got dropped off by parents, most of their players rolled up in toranas with P plates.

Because the summer season now ends *this* calendar year, juniors are still eligible for the age group they played in over last Winter season, where in previous years they would have had to go up into the next age group for Summer. If these girls were second-year U/18s over winter, then that's perfectly legal.

I very much doubt this would/could happen.
As much as I have little time for the club you mention, it is a heavy accusation and there is a channel to be followed, via your club secretary.
