JUNIOR COMPETITIVE TEAM ALLOCATIONS (U12-U16)
Junior players (girls and boys) may need to be graded depending on numbers of registrations.
Trial dates will be set, and you will be notified if you need to attend grading sessions. From these trials, players will be placed in a team. If a player has failed to register or attend at least 2 of the 3 trials, they will be placed automatically in the lowest graded team or put on a waiting list until there are enough numbers to form an additional team.
