VERY IMPORTANT ITEMS UP FRONT:

We know this isn't ideal but there is no other option to get the in-house tourney completed.
3. Evaluations are the week ofOctober 13-17.This should not conflict with CG Football or CG Baseball/Softball tournaments. The Gym floors are getting refinished the week ofOctober 6thso the gym is closed that week. Eval schedule will be finalized prior to registration.

*16U division is only OPEN (no rec), HOWEVER, if you have a 16U player who would like to play and is not part of an Open Team roster, we may have the opportunity to form some teams for that division. We are working through the details now and will have more to come.
Evaluations– There will be evaluations this year after the sign-ups close. Since 6U Boys and Girls do not participate in assessments, coaches can lock up to 4 players per team, as the remainder of the roster will be randomly picked by the league. Boys and Girls (8U-14U) will go through the evaluations in the College Grove Rec Gym, which allows coaches and assistants to grade/score the players. Coaches, your kids will not have to undergo evaluations due to the large number of participants. Players unable to attend the assessment name will go in a hat and be picked randomly by the coaches at the Draft.EVALUATIONS WILL BE THE WEEK OFOCTOBER 13-17
OPEN teams– Open teams are available for 10U (boys & girls), 12U (boys & girls), 14U (boys only), and 16U (boys only). You must contact the commissioners during registration if you are interested in forming an OPEN team.Coaches must organize their teams and email the commissioners their completed roster. Players still need to register online, but there are no evaluations. Parents will receive information regarding your first practice from your coach.
