Per Basketball New Brunswick: 

Only athletes born in 2015 or earlier are eligible to participate in Spring / Summer Competitive Basketball. Competitive basketball is defined as programming that includes travel teams, games played in other communities, tournaments, tryouts, and player selection or cuts.

This approach is intended to support long-term athlete development by providing younger athletes with more opportunities to explore multiple sports, reducing the risk of burnout, and avoiding an overemphasis on competition at early stages. It also helps prevent multiple competitive seasons within the same calendar year, allowing athletes to develop in a balanced and age-appropriate environment.
