The following documents are required:

* A copy of each child's birth certificate

* A copy of each child's FINAL 2024-2025 report card (showing all 4 quarters)

You may upload a clear image of each document during the registration process, but please keep hard copies available to be provided upon request. In particular, be sure to print the report card from Power School (if needed) before it gets shut down for the summer (many school districts).

The registration questions have changed. We no longer require a physical form or a doctor's signature. Medical questions, including insurance policy information, date of last tetanus booster, concussion info and more are included in the registration questions. These must be answered properly for your child to participate.

Requests related to team placement (with a particular coach, with siblings or friends) may be made at the time of registration. We will attempt to honor requests where possible, but we cannot guarantee they will be granted. The order of registration will be the deciding factor in cases where there are more requests than available spots on a team. If there are multiple teams within a division, those teams will be rostered to have as close to equal numbers of players as possible.
