Squads and Squad Assignments
All new players must be evaluated to determine squad placement. We do not cut players but prefer to place and develop them at the appropriate level. Evaluations give our coaches a chance to assess each player’s abilities in order to determine where best to place them. Players will be placed on one of the following squads, based on an evaluation of their ability and fundamental skills. Players will be moved into different squad assignments over time, as their skills improve
