In my post above #6, I gave the basics for getting started. "You have one year to get evaluated once you start going, however I would just knock out all three in a row. You'll see yourself getting better quicker that way."

One thing I left out that's important. When you finish evaluation you'll fill out what's called a 'blue sheet', in fact you'll do that before every season you play, but in following sesons you'll just hand it back to your manager. Normally when you finish evaluation you may be forced to be a sub until that first season ends. I found that the day I turned in my blue sheet, I had three managers calling me that night. Two for rec league and one neighborhood, all wanting me to play on their team. So I never had to sub, I went with the neighborhood team and played the last 9 games with them that first season. Most seasons are 14 games long and we have 3 seasons a year.
