Important League Information

The season is eight games long, 4 v 4 style, on a small field format.
Important Dates
Games will be held on Saturdays starting April 17 through June 12 (skipping May 29 for Memorial Day Weekend).
Practice Schedule: Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays or Fridays for one hour in the evening, practices begin the week of April 5.
Every participant is required to attend one “Skill Level Assessment” event located at Calvary Church Mid Rivers Campus. We hold these so that we can build teams that are equal in skill level. Kids have fun when they feel they have fairly even competition. We do not have whole teams come and play in our league.

Saturday March 6, 9:00 am to 2:00 pm - Skill Level Assessment Alternate Date:
Sunday March 7, 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm

Monday June 14, 5:30 pm to 8:00 pm in the Calvary Church Gymnasium.
