We cannot guarantee any games or bye weeks.Please choose your team's preferred region*Please note that in fall there are fewer Seattle field slots You must choose at least one area but may choose more. Locations are not guaranteed. Game locations are based on a number of factors, including field supply, opponent field preference, and time preferences. North Seattle South Seattle Eastside West Seattle Which "North"?*North Seattle is the preferred region of around 90% of teams, but unfortunately our field distribution isn't 90% north. Please choose a specific "north" region. This does not guarantee your games will be at the specific fields since we may only use what we have been allocated. It gives schedulers a better idea of your location preferences, and when possible we try to place your games at these fields. Shoreline: Shoreline Center Park, Twin Ponds Lake City: Ingraham, Magnuson, Nathan Hale, Jane Addams, Roosevelt Ballard: Lower Woodland, Loyal Heights, Interbay, Queen Anne Capitol Hill: Washington Park, Miller Far Field*You may have 2-3 games at a location considered far. Marymoor, Robinswood, and Wilburton are not considered far for Seattle based teams, but they are taken into consideration in the overall schedule (e.g., you will not be given 3 far fields and 3 non far eastside fields) Please choose your preferred far area. North & East (Woodinville, Bothell) South & West Choose at least one Time Preference*Please note that in fall there are fewer early game slots Because there are more late time slots we consider 8pm start times as early, but 8:15pm as late. Schedule my team for early games (6:15/30 rare, 6:45, 7, 7:15, 8) Schedule my team for late games (8:15, 8:30, 8:45, 9/9:15 rare) All late games?*If you need all your games scheduled after 8pm, please indicate that below and we will do our best to accommodate. Please be aware if you are a late only team you are more likely to get the rare 9:/9:15pm time, since those are unpopular times for early preferred teams. All games after 8 We prefer late games but can have some early games Choose at least one Time Preference*Please note that in fall there are fewer early game slots You may choose more than one.
