DIVISION DESCRIPTIONS

Division	Description
Recreational	This division will feature teams that may have some skilled players, but also many inexperienced players and the team as a whole is just in it for the fun. If several of the players are hard kicking and quite competitive in nature then the team should move up to a higher level. In this level, Sportsmanship ratings will have a more direct impact on each team’s standings than in higher divisions. Teams in this division must have a “fun first” approach to every game. Note: Teams that register for Recreational but have had good success in this level will likely be moved up to a higher division before the season starts.
Recreational Plus	This division is for teams or players that have some soccer experience and display better ball control and teamwork then those in the recreational division.
Intermediate	This division is for teams that have more experience or past success than an average team in Recreational Plus. Intermediate teams are looking for a good challenge each night and don’t want to play weaker teams that will result in a blow out. Most players on the team have experience playing Indoor Soccer and are solid in the fundamentals, while the line-up also includes a few very strong players.

DIVISION NOTES

(1) SSC division offerings are based on the experience and skill level of the teams - not on their competitive behaviour. All SSC players are expected to play with a ‘fun-first, winning second’ attitude regardless of their division.

(2) The SSC may move your team up or down a division based on past results or the quality of other teams that have registered this season. Seeding for 2-3 weeks is another option the Club uses to re-align teams into the appropriate level after registering.

(3) Because the SSC does not host try-outs, teams/individuals/groups are expected to read the division descriptions and place themselves in the most appropriate division. If players are unsure of which division to register for, they are welcome to contact the office anytime for advice.
