Team Formation
Of all the functions within the club, none is more controversial than
team formation. Every year, there are countless requests for exceptions
for team formation whether it's to play with a friend, to play in an
older age bracket, to help with carpooling, etc.
We have tried in the past to accommodate many of these requests.
However, with each granted exception, we create new problems. We also
further complicate and elongate the very difficult work of team
creation.
We will no longer accept requests for team
placement for carpooling, friends, or age (i.e. playing up).
Teams will be formed with the following considerations:
- Completely random
- Coach and Assistant Coaching tandom
- By skill level
- By registration order
The Board has decided that
placement of players will be completely random. We understand that this will not
please parents who requested their child to be on a certain team or to have a friend on
their team. This year children in the same age division will be playing
on the same set of fields.
U6 level games will be played at Winslow Elementary School
U8 level will be played at Sherman Elementary School
Above U8 at Town Park
Please do not ask to move teams.The placement decision of the team formation committee
is final.
(Whenever possible, we will place the child of a
sponsor on the sponsor’s team.)
