A Liability Waiver is an on-line form must be filled out by a parent or guardian for each player that wishes to participate in our league one time per school year. The purpose of the waiver is to release the league of any liability in the case of an accident or improper conduct by players, coaches, or fans.
In the Balanced divisions, programs should do their best to equally distribute the skill and athleticism across all teams. This is to create the best environment possible for all girls in those important early development seasons.
No, after a few years of experimenting with this, league members voted to dissolve the JV division. Grade specific teams (5th or 6th) can be registered. If your parish/school does not have enough kids to have separate grade teams, they must register as a 6th grade team.
League guidelines allow the combination of grade levels 7th and 8th to a Varsity division. It is up to each individual program to determine the right approach for their teams. As a league, we will work to match competitive levels within divisions.
