AGE MATRIX
Last update: September 2022
Whenever possible divisions are assigned based on single year age groups. Age groups are based on the birth year matrix for 2022-2023 youth outdoor league (matrix expires after Spring Session 2023):
Exceptions:
Players may be up to 2 birth years younger than the age group they are registering for.
If players are found to be too old or too young for any given age group they will be dropped from the roster and will not be allowed to play. It is the coach’s responsibility to ensure that all players are eligible to play for the age group.
2022-2023 Age Matrix
