Division Play

Division Play is Gotham’s organized league play program. Gotham offers two 10-week seasons in the Fall and Spring each year. There are a total of 11 divisions, covering players at nearly all skill levels. The season typically concludes with an additional one-day End of Season Tournament, followed by a Gotham-wide End of Season Party at a later date.

All Gotham Division Players sign up as individuals, and teams are formed by captains using a draft system. Captains are elected from the pool of players who participated in the most recent prior season. These captains observe prospective players at a tryout session before drafting teams of 8-10 players. Many players, including all those who are new to Gotham Division Play, must attend tryouts in order to participate in Division Play. Use the tables below to determine which division(s) to try out for.

Each Division plays on a consistent weekly schedule. By virtue of the draft system, which occurs in order by division starting with Division 1, the average skill level is most advanced in Division 1 and least advanced in Division 11. Most games are played in gyms within Chelsea and Hell’s Kitchen, but this is subject to change based on availability.

Information on registration and tryout dates can be found shortly before the beginning of each season on the Upcoming Season page and in our Newsletter (subscribe at the bottom of the website!).
