Overview

Age Group Classification

All boys and girls who register with the TPSC are eligible to play in accordance with their age groups. The age is determined by the player's birth year for competitive teams. For recreational play, teams are composed by grade level.

Our competitive team formation will be subject to the numbers and quality of players who turn out for tryouts. Final decisions on team formation and Division placement will not be made until tryouts are complete.
