2022-2023 Season Updates
1. The 12U-19U club-based division has been the pinnacle of the SCCL since the beginning. Beginning in the Fall of 2022, the 13U-19U club-based flights will feature promotion relegation extending the competitive atmosphere from “Premier 1” to “Champions League.”
Clubs with teams currently competing in the “club-based” division will retain their position in the newly named “Champions League,” and going forward the promotion/relegation criteria will be applied seasonally as it has been in the Premier divisions (click here for the promotion/relegation criteria). Should a club feel that their current “club-based” team would be better suited in a Premier division, the club can request to be moved into a lower division.
2022-23 Hierarchy of Divisions
- Champions League
- Premier 1
- Premier 2
- Premier 3
- Premier 4
- Premier 5
2. With the change to the club-based model at the 13U-19U age groups, the 12U division will now allow for more SCCL Member clubs to participate at the 12U age group. The only criteria for participation will be:
- The teams must be from an existing SCCL member club
- A club must enter two teams for each gender it would like to participate in. For example, if Club A would like to participate in the Girls 12U division, they will be required to declare two teams (with a 26 player max roster for each team): One in the top flight, and one in the second flight.
- Clubs do not have to enter the 12U division in BOTH genders if it does not fit their club’s needs.
