  WASHINGTON AREA GIRLS SOCCER LEAGUE

(WAGS)

The WAGS league provides play for girls’ teams ages U-9 to U19.  The geographic range of WAGS is similar to NCSL.    Each club may have a maximum of 2 teams in the age group.  If you only have one team at U9 you may add a second team at U10; however, if a club has no teams playing U11, they may not form two teams at U12.  The maximum roster size is 12 players per team for U9-U12 and 18 players per team for U13 and above.  No seeding, scores or standings will be published for the entire U9-U11 years, but the league will track the scores for division placement. 

WAGS limits age groups to 50 teams beginning at U13 and drops from the league the five bottom finishers in the lowest division each season, if there are five or more teams on the waiting list.  Teams entering in the Fall of U9 are randomly assigned to divisions.  Drops start at the end of the spring season of U12.  Clubs may enter only two teams per age group unless both teams are in Division 3 or higher, in which case a third team may apply.  WAGS moves teams between divisions based on end-of-season standings and expectations of future play, without a set formula.  High school age teams have the same sit-out option as in NCSL.
