Association Teams

Tryouts & Selections

We made some changes effecting eligibility for Washington teams this season, in the event we need to have selections for a Washington 1 and a Washington 2 team.

The only eligibility requirement for the Washington 2 team team is to pay your dues and show up to play! However, in order to reflect our desire that Washington 1 not only be made up of our more skilled players, but also of our players who "give back" to the organization, we have added and changed our eligibility requirements.

Beyond the try-outs themselves, in order to be selected for the Washington 1 team, a player must have paid their dues, attended 67% of scheduled Association practices and met ONE of the following conditions:

  1. Organize and conduct a clinic for club play.
  2. Organize and conduct a clinic or drill for Association practice.
  3. Officiate a club event.
  4. Attend 50% of club play (excluding Saturdays when Associaton events have been scheduled).
  5. Serve on the WFHA or SEFHA Board

If you have traditionally been a Washington 1 player and anticipate having a problem meeting these requirements and feel you have contributed to the organization in other ways, please do not hestitate to contact a Board member and explain your situation.

We are still looking for a Selections Chairperson to help us work on some of these issues, so if you are interested please contact the WFHA President.

League Play

Each association will organize a play day. An effort will be made to invite teams outside of the Southeast organization and to incorporate different "types" of games, for instance, having a men only game, a women only game, and perhaps even a masters game -- the set up of the play day will be up to the host.

The Frannie Homer Bowl, the award given to the champion of the Southeast league, will be awarded the weekend before the Southeast Tournament, the date and time of which will be announced later.

Please refer to master Association schedule for play days scheduled for this season.

Uniforms

Association players must buy WFHA association uniforms if they plan on playing in Southeast play days and on WFHA tournament teams. More information available upon joining the WFHA.
