ROSTERS

Players are put on teams based on gender and grade.  Geographic location, schools, and number of coaches available in areas, are considered, when forming teams. Coaches decide on their team’s practice day & time, so if the practice day is of utmost importance to you, then volunteer to coach.

Roster Sizes: Preschool= 10, Kindergarten = 10, 1st = 10, 2nd = 10, 3rd/4th= 10, 5th/6 h= 12, 7th/9th = 15
