We aim to provide every athlete with the opportunity to participate on a CCDS team. However, due to league rules and roster limits, teams are filled based on the order of registration. Once a team reaches capacity, additional players will be placed on a waiting list. If enough interest and coaching support are available, we will form an additional team.

If multiple teams are formed, the process for dividing players between teams will be communicated directly to families of registered players.
