| The following leagues are for 9-12 year olds. The players must be evaluated on March 18 from 4-6pm and March 21st from 12-4pm to determine which league they should be place in, either AAA or Majors. Most 9-10 year olds will be in AAA and 11-12 year olds in Majors, however it will depend on their talent and need to fill teams in each league. In the past some 10 year olds have been placed in Majors. Players will be rated at the evaluation and a draft will be held. The goal of these leagues is to make equal teams. It is for this reason that the chance of being placed with a certain coach or friend is not always possible or probable. Games start at 5:30 pm, with some Saturday morning games after soccer season ends. All practices , games, and evaluations will be held at the Warren Complex. |
