How the Season Works

  • Games: Five weekends of league play, followed by the End-of-Season Tournament. All teams qualify.
  • Seeding: 12U & 14U Competitive open with an additional seeding weekend of 4 pool games to place teams into divisions (Elite, Gold, and Silver).
  • Play Days: Rec and 10U–12U Competitive on Saturdays; 14U Competitive & High School on Sundays.
  • Scheduling & Travel: We work to keep teams near a “home” field when possible; north/south travel occurs mainly for the tournament or when numbers are low in a division.

Divisions, Sites & Common Questions

Divisions

  • Recreational Community-based teams across 8U–14U.
  • Competitive 10U available; A (Elite), B (Gold), and C (Silver) levels available in 12U–14U.
  • High School Sunday play.

Games are hosted at partner sites around the Front Range (Erie, Longmont, Firestone, Frederick, Windsor, Platteville, Hyland Hills, Niwot, Johnstown, Berthoud, Thornton, Castle Rock, Colorado Springs/Falcon, Pueblo, Cheyenne, Fort Lupton, Brighton).
