  • TEAM FORMATION

    Teams are formed by birthdate using the Seasonal Year (Aug. 1 – July 31).


    We take friend requests, school / grade, etc. into consideration whenever possible.


    We suggest a roster size of 6-7 players.


    Teams can be either co-ed or all-girls.

    • The In-House League is co-ed, which means that any all-girls teams will play against co-ed teams.
    • However, if we have enough all-girls teams, it's likely we will form a separate all-girls league.

    ** Important - Teams MUST have at least 1 parent volunteer! **
