Special Note: Since this is a recreational league, we expect all players to play in a friendly manner. There shall be no deliberate foul play including pushing and absolutely no slide tackling. While we do not anticipate any problems, we reserve the right to remove a player from the program for unsportsmanlike conduct. Remember that players assume the risk of injury that may be caused by competitive play!
Participants
The league is open to all adults (male and female) 18 years or older. Participants MUST have their own medical insurance and by participating agree to the waiver of liability and medical release reflected on the registration form.
Teams
Teams will be formed with a minimum of 12 and maximum of 18 players. Each team will have assigned manager or co-managers. Please indicate on your registration form if you would like to be a manager or assistant.  The Director of Adult Soccer will assign managers or co-managers if there are not enough volunteers. 
 
Teams may be formed and registered as a team by indicating the same team name on the registration form. Players who register individually will be assigned to a team. Each team will be assigned a shirt color (white or green) for each game. Players should however always bring both shirts. Team rosters may be altered in order to even the number of players and substitutes as needed.
