COACHES & PRACTICE

Our league is a volunteer league so all teams will need a volunteer coach. Coaches set their own practice schedules but must secure practice locations other than SFXAA fields as we do not have enough space and time slots to accommodate all divisions. Most teams practice at a centrally located park like Butler/Royal Palm Park and Granada Park but other locations may be utilized based on coach discretion. Coaches register the same way as players do but do not have to pay a fee.

TEAM FORMATION

The league will make its best effort to accommodate team requests for non-evaluation/draft leagues, but no guarantees are given. If no request is provided though the registration process, we will place players where needed to form complete teams. Additionally, if a team has to many players requesting one coach that group will be asked to split up as too many kids on one team takes playing time away from the kids and slows their development. It also puts a very big burden on the volunteer coach(s)
