The age criterion for a class is set for the age that a young woman will attain during the year as
previously mentioned in this thread. That is the default for each class age. The age cannot be changed. For example, the Young Women 15 class will include, by default, all young women turning 15 during the year. Splitting the Young Women 15 class and then attempting to combine one of those two classes with the Young Women 14 class is not possible using the split and combine features. Instead the system will allow manually moving individuals from the Young Women 15 class to the Young Women 14 class. Those young women will now be identified as not being age appropriate for the Young Women 14 class and will have an asterisk to the left of their name. They will not be automatically moved the next year, or any following year. They will have to be manually moved until they are returned to their age appropriate class.
Carefully consider the instructions in
General Handbook, 11.1.3, (11.6.2 and 38.8.27, if appropriate). The system is set to follow the
General Handbook.
