About the Developmental Plus+ and Developmental Programming

CMSA’s U10 and U11 League has a ‘Developmental Plus+’ and ‘Developmental’ stream. Both streams offer a quality experience for players and their families.

Neither stream is purely based on ability, but on the needs, interests, and motivations of the child. The determining factors in evaluating whether to place groups in the “Developmental Plus+” or “Developmental” streams are the length of the season and the proximity of their matches. “Developmental Plus+” will play in a city-wide division and have a longer, split season. “Developmental” will have regionalized play with a shorter season.

In this player-first model, clubs are encouraged to evaluate players based on their levels of interest and commitment in soccer and utilize social relationships (friendships) as a key factor in forming teams.

CMSA advocates for equal playing time for all players and to try all positions on the pitch. No scores or standings are kept in the Developmental Plus+ or Developmental stream.
