  • Children that played in the Fall 2023 season will stay on their fall team for the spring season. If requested, they can be moved to a different team for the spring season.
  • New players are randomly assigned to teams according to age.
  • Player movements are then made according to Standing Rules Article 2.8.

Returning fall season coaches will be assigned to the same team in the spring season if they register by the on time player registration deadline.
