Team Formation Results, Acceptance and Decline 

· Teams will be formed by birth year, coaches’ evaluations, and then by Team Formation results.

· Our DOC is the final decision maker for team formations.

· We strive to maintain our teams and coaching consistency; however, HFC may require you to be flexible in your players team placement.

· Team formation in the fall may be different from your summer team based upon registration options selected by our players.

What if my child is going to miss Team Formation but still wants to play with HFC?

· Register for Team Formation. Within the registration, there will be a section where you can note that you are unable to attend.  Please answer that you will not be attending. If you are unable to attend it may impact your child's team placement. We cannot place you on a team unless you have registered for Team Formation.

What if my child wants to be considered for the position of goalkeeper?

· There are no specific goalkeeper sessions at Team Formation.  During registration, we will have a section you can mark that you would like your player considered for the specific spot.  Your child should attend the Team Formation session for their age group.
