 Dividing into Premier & Division I

Anyone born in 1972 or earlier who is not currently on the roster of one of the WSC O40 League teams! 

 

For the spring session only on Wednesday nights, we are able to place players turning 38 (or older) in 2010.  We will have 2 divisions, Premier and Division I.  Please contact Ann Sherwood if you'd like to play.  Let her know your experience level and which division you think you'll fit into.  Another opportunity for a great night of exercise and healthy competition.

The next session the age limit will once again be turning 40 this year so get in now so you can be grandfathered into the league.
