–   players to be in a team appropriate to their skill level and abilities (as assessed by Coaching Panel*)
–   players to be in a team appropriate to their age
–   all siblings to be kept together where possible
–   friendship groups to be kept together where possible
–   players to be put in teams with regards to travel requirements

* Coaching Panel will consist of all Team Coaches and Team Manager

Process
