Eligibility Guidelines
Eligible NACA teams are from Christian Schools and Homeschool programs. Teams that are not associated with a Christian School or a Homeschool program should contact the NACA office to determine eligibility and appropriate divisional placement. If your Christian School team or Homeschool Program team is a “hybrid,” meaning you have athletes from another school/program on your roster, that athlete must actively play for your team throughout the season. All athletes, in order to be eligible for an NACA event, must be active members of your roster at least 21 days prior to participating in an NACA tournament. Any athlete who reaches his/her 19th birthday before July 1 prior to the fall semester of the current school year is not eligible to compete at the NACA. Hardships are considered case by case.
