Spectator areas are designated. Bring a chair. Tents and coolers are allowed. No dogs or pets allowed per County guidelines.

We have a tailgate like atmosphere at games. Look left and right and make some new friends. We all have a shared passion for giving our kids a competitive environment to enjoy the game without the competitive craziness sometimes seen on youth sports sidelines.

Once all the rosters are posted, a league-wide notification will go out.

You may request to play with as many friends as you want during the registration process. This is a request and not guaranteed. We will do our best to honor all requests.

Note... don't get fancy with this. I have seen it all. The friend request chains... the carpool requirements... and many other strategies. Just request who you would like to play with and we will do our best.

No. Our first player price is lower or even with most leagues sibling price. You get the sibling price with all players.

the combine

The Combine is an opportunity for coaches and staff to evaluate player skill level to ensure competitive parity (roughly equivalent levels of talent). There are no "cuts". All players are rostered.

The Combine is not mandatory. But, we do highly recommend attendance plus the kids have fun.

Important Note: The league may be extended due to weather or other circumstances. If weather causes a delay... games are postponed, not canceled. Games will be rescheduled.
