- All players will register as "Free Agents" and will placed on teams via the Draft. All players are registering to be part of the Charlotte Women's Soccer League; any request to play with a specific team and/or player is only a request.
- All players will receive a "Player Ranking" based on overall soccer skill level. These rankings are used to create balanced and even skilled teams, including the number of games you are able to attend. **If you do not attend an Open Play, your Player Ranking is what you rank yourself.
- Captains will select players through a blind draft (names are hidden). Rankings are calculated after each selection to maintain team/league parity.
- At the end of the draft, captains are allowed a "Trading Period" in which captains can trade players. This allows the captains to
attempt to build a well-balanced team regarding positions and requests (i.e. if a team is heavy on defense
and needs more forwards)
NOTE:
- Drafts occur prior to each Fall Season; teams will remain
the same in the following Spring (new
members of the league for the Spring Season will be drafted.)
- Players may request to be with ONE or TWO other member of the league; the pair/triplet is selected and/or traded together in the draft process.
