NL Premier League

NL Premier & Championship League Teams (Youth)

The NL Premier League (formerly PYL) is a province-wide club league with U15 and U17 age divisions. This is for players who have stronger technical & athletic ability and heightened interest in the sport. Players are selected for Premier League teams after try-outs that happen in the fall of each year.  These teams compete for the right to represent Newfoundland and Labrador at the Canadian Club National Championships, so please understand that commitment and dedication are vital at this level. 

Feildians supports & encourages our multi-sport athletes. We try and accommodate the most likely clashes when scheduling our practices & do not have strict attendance requirements as a pre-requisite to play with the club.  Many of our players also play competitive hockey, volleyball, basketball, baseball etc. 

Typical Premier League players are highly motivated.   

We understand that players may miss practices and games due to vacations, sickness or family circumstances. Outside of this, it is expected that they attend all training sessions & games, with team managers being notified of all absences.

Championship League teams are rep teams that complete in a province-wide league with U15 & U17 age divisions.  This league is a developmental league for the Premier League and players can be called up to the FAA Premier League team in case of injury or a shortage of players for that particular game.
