- Typically teams play on Saturdays (some older teams may have Friday evening games), and most teams practice on weekdays or Sundays
- A wide variety of fields around DC and close-in Maryland are used for practices and games
- Coed teams available from Pre-K through 12th grade (coed teams are often mostly boys, especially above 2nd grade)
