Thank you to all who attended the Annual CR meeting.
Important information to registering teams and processing PS1 were discussed and I appreciate the valuable questions in our exchanges.

OLDER POSTINGS, Still relevant
Teams may change age group during a soccer seasonal year when we are not in roster freeze.  Therefore any team playing if you had two teams of smaller age groups playing in Fall and only one wishes to continue then you may be able to combine them and make a large sided team for spring.  Talk to your league registrar for additional details.

Entry deadlines and registration deadlines are posted to the website calendar.  Please make sure all teams entering CUP have finalized roster changes by 3/15/10 the Cup freeze date.

Any teams entering LVYSL Spring season should give you team restrictions (religious commitments, graduation dates, prom, SAT, tournaments, etc.) so you may enter that information on the entry for games commissioners to use when scheduling.
