Certain Players are "Grandfathered" and must continue to play "up" in age for the remainder of their TBO Travel Experience.  These players had been playing with their grade level when the little league age cutoff changed to 4/30 and essentially created little league teams that are split among two grades for each age group.  TBO has allowed "Grandfathered" players to stay with their grade.

To be "Grandfathered" the player must have played "up" in 2007!!!

Examples:

-5th Grader who is born after 4/30/1997 and played "up" in 2007 must play on the 11u team (not the 10u team).

-6th Grader who is born after 4/30/1996 and played "up" in 2007 must play on the 12u team (not the 11u team).

-7th Grader who is born after 4/30/1995 and played "up" in 2007 must play on the 13u team (not the 12u team).

-5th Grader who is born after 4/30/1994 and played "up" in 2007 must play on the 14u team (not the 13u team).
