Can my kid play in a higher Grade this season even if not old enough?
It is preferable that kids play in their respective age groups but if you think your kid should play in a different grade please discuss with us. Sometimes the right grade depends on more than age. If your kid is too young we may encourage you to sign them up for OJSC instead. OJSC covers the age range from 4 to 9 years old. (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100068381560668)
