03s that dont chose to play up

Currently playing for D1 03 team that will be playing up next season. I don't think that is my BB best option. What 03 teams in the Keller-Southlake options are out there for 03. I would assume all current teams will play in 02 bracket

I would suggest look at the 04 teams that will be moving to U14 next season. They will love to have older 03s

All 03 teams, that have byes, will HAVE to play up in the 02 bracket. If you don't want to play up, and want to play CL, you have to find an 04 team with a bye.

Which is...hmmm...near you....not much

LP Yocum - maybe gets promoted to D1, at least D2 (BSky Keller)
Rayos - likely get relegated to D2 (Fort Worth)
Fever - likely staying in D2 (Colleyville)

Solar Red 04 used to practice in Keller but has now moved somewhere like Carrollton or Coppell, but has Keller/Southlake kids on team (for now). That way you could keep the same uniforms.

If you want to play 02 bracket but not play D1, your options in the area also are not huge. Faber should have a D2 bye for 02 bracket. I don't know of any other teams nearby.

Here we go. This is going to be a big part of the turnover. Spring kids can now play on teams where they are the oldest players.

Would a team have to keep 75% in order to keep the bye? How will that work if some of the boys leave to play down an age? Or can a big club stack the 02 team with older players even if they were not on the team that got the bye. I'm confused.

It is my understanding as long as team stays with same club, the 75% rule will not apply this year.
