 Team Ages & Weights
A player must meet the age and weight requirements of a division (C, B, A) to be eligible to play in that division. Any player whose league age is below the requirements for that division must only meet the weight requirement to be eligible to participate in that division. Any player whose league age is above the requirement for a division will only be eligible to participate in that division if they meet the “play down” league age and weight requirements for that division.
