How are the teams drafted?
A. Anklebiter teams are drafted as to create equal teams. Most other weight classes split into 1 American Division Team (most experienced players), 1 or 2 Central Division Teams (less experienced players) and 1, 2 or 3 National Division Teams (beginners). We follow the Fairfax County rules regarding placement of teams, which is determined by the number of players in each weight class. (Ex: 3 teams 1 American & 2 National Teams, 4 teams 1 American, 1 Central & 2 National Teams). Note: If your child is one of the younger or smaller players at any weight class they will “most likely” play in the Central or National conference. It is all dependant on ability and this usually sorts itself out after the first few nights of contact practices. Teams are split after the first week of practice or in the first few days of the 2nd week of practice.
