National Elite players have goals to play at the collegiate level, or are willing to commit to help others achieve this goal. Teams are formed based on similar skill and similar talent level, and not necessarily by age (younger players could be placed on older age division teams). Our goal is for all National Elite team players to play at high levels . Thus, National Elite players will be placed on teams that give them the greatest opportunity to improve through training and playing time. Teams will practice/play two-three times per week. National Elite Team members require a very HIGH level of commitment.
