Proof of age in junior basketball
Can someone confirm if proof of age is required in basketball in all states?.I know other sports require birth certificates,but remember when registering my son many years ago at local club level no proof was required
Not that it matters to us ,but from there his age group was determined and his eligibilty to under age state teams.
I am not saying it is deliberate but quite easy to make mistakes in the paperwork.
I know of one case with a single dad who was respobsible for the sport stuff and he got it wrong in U/8 and that continued right through until they were a senior player.Shame he didnt have the talent,could have been the biggest U/16 player in the country..lol
