You may not choose your team, but you can request to NOT be on the team your were on in the SPRING.

A: For the FALL season, players do stay on the same team from the SPRING, if they DO NOT age up to a new age group. They can reguest to change teams. All request to change are kept confidential. Players that request to change teams can NOT request the team they will go to, unless their parent is stepping up to head coach a new team.
PLAYERS THAT AGE UP GROUPS and players that choose to change teams, will be placed in a player pool to fill out other rosters on other teams. Parents that choose to step up and coach a team needing a coach will get their child and 1 assistants child, automatically with the remaining be randomly assigned. This is for everyone. If assistants children from the fall stay on the same team, but the assistant can not help in the spring the team does NOT get to choose a new assistant.
