There's actually a more complete explanation of the VADCFLL policy regarding Divisions on the FAQ page of the VADCFLL website, under Tournaments and Registration:

5) What are the age divisions and what do they mean for my team?

A: If all your team members are 11 or younger as of January 1, then they are a Division 1 team. If at least one team member is 12 or older as of January 1, then your team is in Division 2. One exception to this - if a team that is designated division 1 by team member ages would like to "play up" and compete as a division 2 team, they may elect to do so by sending an email to [log in to unmask]. However, under no circumstances can a division 2 team compete in division 1. Teams may register for any regional tournament, regardless of division, and they will be competing against other teams within their division. The division number will be automatically assigned once team member birth dates are filled in, so it is very important that team member birthdates be complete and accurate.
