Registration Process: a two-step registration process has been implemented for players interested in participating in Advanced League teams.

Step One: Interested players are invited to register their intent for playing in the advanced league for their age group. Player evaluations are used to place players on appropriate teams.

• Evaluations are completed by coaches at the end of each season. They can also be completed by DOCs during other playing opportunities (tournaments, summer camps, team training sessions, etc.).
• Once a player has been placed on a team, the player will receive an email officially offering a spot on a team.

Step Two: Players can accept or decline the spot they have been offered through their PlayMetrics account. Upon acceptance of the spot on a team and completion of the additional registration information, an invoice will be generated for the registration and payment can made. Registration is not complete until a payment has been made or a payment plan has been activated.
