Who supervises the games?
Paid coaches, including a coach-referee, and a scorekeeper at every game. They aren’t always the same people: the league tries to keep the same coaches with the same groups.

What’s the minimum age?
The junior league welcomes children from age 5, in the U7 division. For a younger child, the decision is up to the parents. Teams are formed by year of birth, from U7 to U16. At 16, players move up to the adult league, with a signed consent form.
My child has never played, can they sign up?

Do we need to find a team?
No. Registration is individual, and the league builds the teams.
