Team Draft Selection
The League Supervisor will manage a draft of equal strength teams through special rules and guidelines. Parents may make requests for team, coach or friend assignments no guarantees.
Player Attendance
Because of the highly technical process of determining balanced team rosters, it is expected players will maintain this program as 'first priority" when scheduling among the other fall activities. Your team will be at a clear disadvantage during the games when you are not present.
