Spring 2023 season will be our first season of teams being grade level and not based upon birthdate. Due to the school district changing birthdate requirements for Kindergarten, some of the signup birthdates will be different for our older age groups. This season for signups there will be a requirement of putting the grade level for the player. We know that there will be circumstances in which the player may have been held back a grade level, so we will reach out to those parents whose grade level may not match up with the level that they are signed up with to come to a decision as to which team they will be on.

Our levels:
6U (Preschool/Kindergarten):
     Players with birthdates of 8/1/2016- 7/31/2018
     Practice 1 day a week and games at Chamberlin Park only
8U (1st/2nd grade):
     Players with birthdates of 8/1/2014- 7/31/2016
     Practice 2 days a week
10U (3rd/4th grade):
     Players with birthdates of 10/1/2012-7/31/2014
     Practice 2 days a week
12U (5th/6th grade):
     Players with birthdates of 10/1/2010- 9/30/2012
     Practice 2 days a week
14U ( 7th/8th grade):
     Players with birthdates of 8/1/2008- 9/30/2010
     Practice 2 days a week
16U (9th/10th grade):
     Players with birthdates of 8/1/2006- 7/31-2008

We want to have as many kids play as possible so in the instance that there are not enough players for a team the possibilities for a solution will be talked about among the players, families and DPSL Board.
