From Carroll Graham, National Chair:

It would appear that the change in ADD has caused confusion in many places, so let me make it clear what has been passed.

First, the intention of the change is to allow girls with the early birth dates in a class to compete with the other girls in the same class. Most states use September 1, although a few use August 1 and Indiana uses July 1, so that was the date chosen.

Second, with the ADD being moved from January 1, 2008 to July 1, 2007, many girls who could not compete with their teammates are now able to do so.

Third, if the name of the age division is a problem, then it will be addressed at the 2008 Convention.

Thanks for your patience!

Carroll Graham
