The different levels, from highest to lowest, include Division 1, Division 2, Division 3, and Division 4. All new teams that enter the league MUST enter at the Division 4 level.
The MASL season begins league play in late April and ends in early August. In addition to league play, each team can register to participate in either of 2 league sanctioned Tournaments, the Wilson or Minnesota Cups. Prior to the season starting, all new and existing teams are required to attend general meetings once a month, starting in February and running through April. These general meetings outline information for teams, such as proposed changes, division alignments, team costs, and the registration process.
