There are 5 clubs in the league: East Bay Eagles, San Francisco, Palo Alto, San Jose Khalsa, and NorCal Sharks. East Bay Field Hockey Association is constituted of 3 sister youth field hockey clubs, San Ramon Field Hockey, Pleasanton Field Hockey and Lamorinda Field Hockey. The NCAA needs a minimum of six teams for a league champion to earn an automatic berth and America East had just five afterwards associate member Fairfield University departed following the 2014 season. But when two leagues don't have sufficient teams to make an automatic qualifier to the NCAA tournament, it is logical for them to unite into a single league to make this qualifier. The players on the area typically contain 10 players and one goalie, although the goalie could possibly be hauled in trade for an extra attack player. Swelling, bruising and swelling at the back of the thigh and the leg beneath the knee are typical symptoms of a pulled hamstring. All programs are coordinated by former Division I college coach and four-time Princeton All-American Kathleen Stefanelli.
