How Entry Works

Seasonal Programs


For seasonal programs, athletes apply in advance and are placed into training pods based on current club level and age. Groupings are adjusted as needed to ensure players are consistently training in the most appropriate environment.



General Entry


For general entry into EFA, players submit an application and are placed into an evaluation alongside athletes of similar age and level. Following the evaluation, families will hear from EFA staff regarding next steps, which may include placement into pod training, individual training, or a waitlist depending on fit and availability.
