Players will be placed into a division based on their League Age (see "Age Chart"). All players are strongly encouraged to play within their age division. There will be no petitions to play up. Some kids may play up if 1) they consent to play up, 2) they are drafted, 3) an older brother/sister is playing in the upper division, and 4) we need younger players to get to the desired number of players per team. To play down a division you must contact the Player Agent (see Board Member Contacts).
