As MASL is a promotion/relegation league, new teams typically start at the bottom of the league at first and work their way up from there. The exception is with new teams who have a history of either high level players (ex. entire team recently graduated playing college soccer) OR the team has recently placed high in recognized tournaments/other leagues.
Do you wish to apply for the exception or do you wish to enter in the lowest division?
(exceptions are not automatically granted, but rather reviewed by the league) *
