Are your age groups off?  For example, if I have an 08 daughter with a spring 08 birthday (currently playing U8), I understood she would repeat u8 in fall 16-spring 17.  The chart at the bottom of your announcement says she will move up to U9.  Under your age chart, all 06 birth year kids will all go to U11/select next fall, which I thought wasn't the case.

Their chart is entirely off by a year on all age groups.

Fixed our 2016-2017 chart. Thanks for catching that.


Spring 2016 will be an hybrid season. The U_ won't be as important as teams registering for the correct division by player birthdates. Some clubs aren't ready for Birth Year (Age Pure). We want to offer options for all teams.

Because we are not bound to NTSSA's rule forbidding U10's from playing with U11's, we can offer a 2005 division in Spring 2016.
