DIVISION CLASSIFICATIONS:
A Division: Teams that compete at a high level. These are teams that have won their local leagues multiple times, have players that are perceived as the best in their respected communities, have players that compete in national circuits like Kickball365, have players that are experienced kickball players throughout their roster. These are players that have ranked, or consistently rank, in the A-Division in tournaments sponsored by Varsity Gay League, Stonewall Sports, GKUSA, or Kickball365. THIS IS AN ADVANCED OR EXPERIENCED DIVISION
B Division: Teams that are competitive but have a balanced roster of talented and still learning players. These are teams that have won their B-divisions, if existing, in their local leagues, compete well but end up in the middle of the pack, have a wide variety of talent but never make an impact in their local leagues, players that are competitive but still learning the game, players that have won tournaments, like Sin City, Stonewall or GKUSA, but never in the A-Division. THIS IS AN INTERMEDIATE OR DEVELOPING TALENT DIVISION
C Divisions: Teams that are social or recreational and compete just to have fun. Teams may have competitive players but the interest of these teams is to socialize and drink and have fun, more than compete at a high level. These are teams that may have won their C-Division, if existing in their local leagues, have players that have never played before or just completed their first season, players that are still learning the game, players who prefer to be hungover and just have fun, than go to bed early, players who exhibit skills but are still developing them, players that have won tournaments, like Sin City, but never in the A or B Division. THIS IS A BEGINNERS OR SOCIAL/RECREATIONAL DIVISION
