Division formation is based on date of birth years- January 1st to December 31st.

Equipment: Each season, players will receive a team jersey, shorts and socks. The only equipment players must provide is shin guards and soccer shoes.

Team formation: All teams in the Passers Division and above are formed based on a random draw as prescribed by SAY rules. Due to this process, we cannot guarantee practice nights or times, nor can we honor play with requests for coaches or for another player.

If it is past the guaranteed placement date but before the start of games (April for spring and late August for Fall) we will do our best to place all players assuming divisions are not full.
