Age Grouping
Teams will be grouped according to player birth-date. Players born between August 1st of a given year and July 31st of the following year will constitute a single age group. There may be occasions where it is warranted to combine two age groups to ensure a sufficient number and caliber of players – typically in the older age groups. When this is done, the teams are defined by the older age group. Thus, a U17 and U18 combined team is considered to be a U18 team.
Team Size
Teams will only be formed if there are a sufficient number of players trying out to ensure adequate team depth. All teams U13 and older shall have a minimum of 15 players on their roster.
Playing in a Higher Age Division
Players may be allowed to play in a higher age division “play up” if it is clearly in the best interest of the player involved and if the following conditions are met:
1. Upon approval of the Technical Director
2. The player in question will likely
a) be able to earn significant amount of playing time on the older age group team
b) be able to maintain this level of play throughout the entire season without an adverse effect on the player’s development and growth.
3. The only option for the player is to play on an older age group team since there is no team in his/her own age group that a player can play on.
