ABILITY LEVELS: Generally, teams are created on the following competitive scale:

Gold = premier level; Green = premier/classic level; White/Black = classic level.

FEES:

SEASONS: Acceptance of a spot on a team is a commitment for two seasons: Fall season August 1– October 31; Spring Season March 1 – June 1, 2022.  We offer Winter Indoor Training Program from late December through February, as well as individual training programs and leagues at CITY HALL year round.

TRAINING: For U9-U12: 2x per week; U13-U19 Classic level: 2 x per week; U13-U19 Premier level: 3x per week. Practices are 90 minutes in length, typically on a Mon/Weds or Tues/Thurs schedule.

Most U11-U18 teams will apply for two tournaments per season, one local and one which may require overnight stay (within 2½ hour drive from Louisville). The cost for additional tournaments will be covered by the team. For the fall, we will once again apply the entire club to play in a tournament in late Sept./early Oct., then we host the Falls City Festi-ville tournament in late October.
