Division Structure
The FLA will offer a Competitive option for PeeWee through Midget aged players. Teams in this division
will be formed based on skill rather than geographic location. Players registering for this option will be
assessed through a series of skills/evaluation sessions starting in February.
In addition, the FLA will offer a House option for Novice through Midget players, with teams organized
both on relative skill ranking and the athlete’s geographic location.
Additional information on division structure and evaluations will be available on the FLA website closer
to the new year. Registration within the new association will open in January 2019!
