What age groups travel and what age groups only play in St Marys?
U6 and under is always house league played only in town.
When it comes to U8, there is a choice between house league and travel which can be selected at registration. There are certain circumstances where we might need to move players to travel from house league but only if numbers dictate and approved by parents or guardians.
All age groups above U8 are travel teams.
What does tier 3, tier 2 and tier 1 mean?
St Marys Minor Soccer is growing with numbers and skill. With this growth it allows us to have additional groups in age groups. There are 3 tiers in our league. It starts with tier 3 which is the entry level and then moves up to tier 2 followed by tier 1. St Marys minor soccer will always be inclusive. Our philosophy is to have a tier 3 team minimum. After that, if numbers and skill allow we will have a higher tier team. For the higher tier teams, the choice will be made by player development committee based on skill evaluations, coach evaluations and observations.
What is the hot weather policy?
For the U3, U4, U6 and U8 House League divisions, soccer is cancelled if the temperature or humidex value is equivalent to or over 35 degrees Celsius.
