How is age calculated? What is the cutoff date?
VOLLEYBALL uses GRADE IN SCHOOL as the paramenter to place players on a team. So, if the registration asks "GRADE IN SPRING 2024." then anyone in the same grade (or lower grade) can be on a team together. Parents have the option of playing their child UP a grade but never down a grade.
Grades are sometimes combined when creating teams (example, 7th & 8th grade for Senior Division)
