Skills Assessment
Players must report to the skills assessment according to the dates and times listed below. It is imperative that all players attend the skills assessment, held in CYAA Gymnasium at Catholic Charities, 1654 W. Onondaga Blvd, Syracuse, NY. The Gymnasium is in the back of the parking lot. Please arrive 15 minutes before scheduled time to check in and pay if you have not already done so (Cash, Check made to CYAA, Venmo, or Cash App only)

The skills assessment consists of a series of drills designed to assess each player’s ability. This will assist in creating equitable teams.
Formation of Teams
Multiple participants requesting to be on the same team is called a Carpool. Carpools will be honored ONLY if participants are in immediate family (i.e. siblings, legal guardianship, etc.), permitting they are in the same division. All questions regarding this matter should be directed to Coach Crosby, League Director at (315) 992-0992 or by email at CrosbyYouthAthletics@gmail.com
Players not present will be drawn randomly through a blind draw after all players that were present at the skills assessment have been placed onto a team. For those who register late, they will be assigned a team as needed. The director reserves the right to place players at his/her discretion to ensure equitable teams.
