NOTES:
- U7, U8, U9 and U10 games are Saturday only, U12/U14 games are Saturday and Sunday
- U7, U8 teams play 2 games simultaneously on adjoining fields (i.e., assume the Celtics play the Clovers on Saturday at 10:00 am, each team will split their teams in half, one half of the Celtics team plays one half of the Clovers team on one field, and the other halves of both teams play simultaneously on the field next to it). Coaches and players set up in between the 2 fields, and coaches will facilitate the matches.
