I'm not sure what the reason for this is, but it seems a shame that coaches and trainers spend 5-6 years or more developing pitchers, and then can't use them in their last year of rec. league play. This, as expected, results in lots of good pitchers leaving the park a year early (and leaving kids they played with for those 5-6+ years) and playing only travel ball. Opinion?

To me, that is utterly ridiculous. These kids paid to play just like everyone else. I am surprised that there is even a 16U league where these kinds of constraints exist. What is the inane reasoning for this rule???
