so here the answer .. the junior NTs will be U21 .. look NT Rankings ..
and it's inclusive age 21..

what you says ..



Where did this info come from?

Never mind, I see it.

I am presuming it is indeed inclusive.

LOL :) But this is a beautiful chance for BB to teach the world the meaning of the word "under"!! Let's set it straight for once and for all!

But I can understand the rule that a player who turns 21 in a season is allowed to play for U21 that complete season. In case of BB the would look rather silly, though: U21 teams with only 21yr olds, as all players have the same date of birth...

I *think* that U21 players in FIFA must be under 21 when the season starts, i.e. they may become 21 during the season without being cut out from the team, but they must be below 21 in the beginning. Even if I am not sure about this, I think it makes sense, as otherwise a player might be able to play until e.g. the semifinals, but is then able to participate in the final if his 21st birthday is between the semis and the final.

you are presuming ..? but you're the coach of USA U21 so you should know if it's including age 21 .. I think you try to hide something from us :)

anyway , Canada roster got 21 years old player .. so my information is from there ..
and really why mark and you already shows as the junior team coachs ?

Nope. I think the silliness comes from FIFA. Someone in Zurich either doesn't understand the word "under" or can't count. Unfortunately, one error has now infested numerous games (see Hattrick as well).


I think while it could be called silly, it's also convention, and using the standard convention stops a lot of confusion via consistency.

.... or implement unique date of births so the rule could be used as it was intended!
