Games are played on Saturday mornings (all divisions) and Sunday afternoons (D2, D3, D4) beginning on September 7th through November 10th. Pre-K and D1 games will not be played on the weekend of September 21st, Hopewell Harvest Fair.
A schedule will be provided after teams are formed. Locations are not finalized but we will try to keep the same locations. The locations used last year are listed above (Independence Park is by Stony Brook Elementary). Practices for D2, D3, and D4 will occur once a week, your coach will determine the day and time.
The HVSA board has adopted a draft procedure policy that warrants that all teams will be reselected on an annual basis.
