Girls’ Points System
In order to be eligible to receive points, players must compete in at least four (4) events from the point system below and meet all U.S. National Development Program and Team Massachusetts eligibility guidelines. Please visit the Team Massachusetts homepage for more information on eligibility and the full selection criteria.
The Team Massachusetts Selection Committee is responsible for the oversight and review of the points system for selection criteria purposes. Any updates or modifications will be considered on an annual basis. The Selection Committee reserves the right to exclude a player from the selection process, regardless of his or her position in the points standings, for conduct it determines is unbecoming as a representative of Team Massachusetts.
