All Charlotte Metro FC teams, regardless of player age, have an 8 month seasonal year:  Fall (Aug-Nov) and Spring (Feb-May), with optional training & camps during the winter and summer months (which are included in the Club Dues).

CMFC teams play in multiple leagues based on the age group, developmental needs, and playing history of the team.  CMFC Directors and coaches will choose the leagues that will best help the team to develop, while also challenging them to play and advance to the highest level leagues.  CMFC teams will play in US Club Soccer sanctioned leagues and tournaments.

Tournaments will be selected by the CMFC Directors in cooperation with the coaching staff based on the level and needs of the team.  When possible, CMFC will send multiple teams to the same tournament.  In general, teams that play in higher level leagues will be sent to higher level tournaments and/or higher divisions of tournaments.
