Play-Up Requests & Policy
Play-Up Requests & Policy
Mission Viejo Region 84 encourages players to participate in their designated birth year division. However, under exceptional circumstances, a parent or guardian may request that their child “play up” in the next higher age group.
Important: This request must be submitted each season before teams are formed. All requests are reviewed individually and must be approved by the relevant Program Managers and the Regional Commissioner prior to the final registration period.
To submit a request, please complete the Play-Up Request Form.
