2023 Recreational Fall Season

We are pleased to announce the opening of our Recreational Fall Season and starting practices and game-play! The DMCV Sharks program is committed to providing a safe and healthy environment for our players, coaches, and Sharks families. Below are important details pertaining to the Recreational Fall Season.

Team rosters will drafted by Volunteer Coaches in end of May
Schedules will be posted in early August
In order to keep the balance between the teams, we will try to have equal number of both age groups, limited number of all star players per teams, diversity of schools. We will try to honor friend requests, but there are no guarantees friends will be on the same team.
The Fall Season will consist of 9 league games followed by the Recreational tournament.
Fall Season practices will start the week of August 15th and end in late October.
Teams will have one set practice per week, based on the volunteer coach’s preference.

Registration starts in January.
$25 Early bird discount until March 31st!!!
