All leagues for 5th grade and below are coached by a volunteer CARD coach. Each team will have approximately one practice and one game a week during the season (this may vary slightly by team). Score is only kept for the 5th grade (no score for 4th grade and below) in order to allow coaches to emphasis creating better athletes, and more importantly, better people by using youth sports as a vessel to learn life skills. There is no end of season tournament to allow. 

Genders and grades will be separated if there are enough players (this historically happens in basketball, but not flag football or volleyball). If there are not enough players, they will be combined. Teams will be loosely based on where the player attends school, with a mandatory skills evaluation being held by CARD staff for schools that have enough players registered for more than one team.

*Exception: All Junior Giant teams are coached by volunteers. 

All leagues for 6th grade and up are coached by paid CARD coach, with a 6-game guarantee- Score will be kept each game, and teams will be seeded for a single elimination end of season tournament based on their league standings.
