TYPA Sports Academy
At TYPA, our goal is to provide a positive, fair and enjoyable sports experience for every child. The following guidelines help ensure that our recreational team sports programs run smoothly and support the development of all participants.
Skills Assessment & Team Placement
To encourage balanced competition and provide appropriate opportunities for skill development, TYPA strives to create teams that are as evenly matched as possible.
Players in Grades 2–5 participating in our seasonal team sports programs are required to complete a skills assessment conducted by the TYPA sports team. Team placements will be determined following the assessment, taking into consideration each player's abilities and the overall balance of the teams.
Weather Conditions & Cancellations
The safety and well-being of our players are always a priority. Sports practices or games may be cancelled due to adverse weather, poor air quality or other unforeseen circumstances.
Please note that practices cancelled under these circumstances are not eligible for refunds, credits or make-up sessions. Games may also be cancelled when conditions are considered unsafe for participation.
