RECREATIONAL LEAGUE
We have Recreational Leagues for all grades, Kindergarten to 12th. Our recreational leagues will teach players basic skills and is intended to be informative and fun. While our leagues are primarily comprised of Eanes Eligible students, we can accommodate some non-Eanes students in the Recreational Leagues. The teams are divided into divisions based on Gender and Grade. The recreational league teams practice once a week (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday). Grades K- 6th generally play one game a week on Saturdays. Grades 7th-12th generally play one game a week on Sunday afternoons. Each team’s Volunteer Coach will select the practice night and time for his/her team. There is no tryout for the Recreational League.

Each year the Divisions are determined by the number of registrants. The most common Divisions for Girls are: K/1st Grade; 2nd Grade; 3rd Grade; 4th/6th Grade. The most common Divisions for the Boys are: Kindergarten; 1st Grade; 2nd Grade, 3rd Grade; 4th Grade; 5th/6th Grade; 7th/8th Grade and 9th/12th Grade.

We do not keep score for K-2nd. These teams are formed mostly by school of attendance. For Grades 3rd-8th, we do keep score and have a draft to form teams. The Girls Divisions sometimes choose to continue forming school related teams for the 3rd Graders; however, this must be agreed on by the Coordinators and Coaches. Grades 9th-12th are player-coached and teams are formed through a collaboration between the coaches and the Coordinator. The cost of the Recreational League is listed below:

Grades K-3rd	Play 8 Games		$195.00
Grades 4th-12th	Play 8 Games plus Tournament		$225.00

PREP LEAGUE
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic all tryout information is tentative. It is possible the Prep League Tryouts will be condensed or eliminated this season.

Our Prep Leagues are for players in the 4th, 5th, and 6th Grades. The Prep Leagues are more competitive and have a limited number of players. Because of the limitation, players must be Eanes Eligible Students and participate in tryouts unless granted a waiver by the league. After the tryouts, the volunteer coaches will hold a draft to select the players for their teams. Players who try out but are not selected in the Prep League drafts will be drafted onto Recreational League teams and partial refunds will be made.

The Prep Leagues consists of 3 Divisions: Girls Prep; Boys Junior Prep, and Boys Senior Prep. The Girls Prep League and Boys Junior Prep Divisions consist of 6 teams with 8 players per team. The Boys Senior Prep Division consist of 8 teams with 8 players per team.

If a player wishes to play in the Prep League and is unable to attend the tryouts, he/she must notify us of the conflict in advance. Missing the tryout due to justifiable reasons does not disqualify the player from consideration; however, failure to notify us does. The Tryout consists of two parts:

Prep League Tryouts Girls Prep	Part 1-Skills	Oct. 30, 2021	*9:00-12:00
