Registration, Evaluation, and Team Composition: Grades 4-8
Please complete the following steps for fast and easy registration. Complete the paperwork and make your payment by 5/15 to avoid a $25 late fee.
Step 1:
Review the age categories and team placement philosophy.
| Category | Grade: Fall 2010 | Placement Philosophy |
U10 U11 U12 | 4 5 6 | We place all registered players on a team. When we compose more than one team for a single age level, we make every attempt to balance the teams. |
U13 U14* | 7 8 | There is one team for each age level. The roster of each team is usually limited to 18 players. |
*Note: "U14" literally means that every player on the team must be "Under 14" at the start of the season. Players in grade 8 who turn 14 before August 1, 2010 are not eligible.
For more details on eligibility, please review our policies.
Step 2:
Register directly with the Colts by May 15, 2010. There are two easy ways:
Step 3: Attend the appropriate evaluation session.
At the U10-U12 levels, we use the evaluation sessions to determine player ability and then compose balanced teams. At the U13 and U14 levels, we use evaluation sessions to select an appropriate roster for each team. Please note the change for U13 and U14 players. In prior years, we evaluated them during Colts camp. This year, the U13/U14 players will be evaluated on May 23rd and teams will be announced by July 1st.

Step 4: Receive a phone call or email from the coach of the team on which your child was placed.
After we compose teams and coaching staffs, we will have your coach contact you directly. We will also post
a list of the teams and their coaches (but not the team rosters) on the Teams page of this web site.
