My son, a veteran, just graduated with an MBA last Sunday. He's 32. He played football at Navy and could probably still suit up.
Why the agism? This isn't a U10 league where that really matters. This is hoops where in professional leagues, ages run from 19 (Flagg) through 41 (LeBron).
why have limits on the lower end, if a 16 or 15 year old is good enough to play for some college team (like say LeBron or Kobe or Moses Malone), why the requirement to have "graduated" from high school (they can take the classes to "graduate" from high school while in college). I'm sure at least a few 16 or 17 year old would prefer to play in college rather than in high school to more quickly improve their game.....probably less of an issue in football but might be relevant to baseball and some olympic sports.
