“I think it’s great to see the player’s and parent’s enthusiasm and support for the entire team and not just for their own individual success. You definitely get a family feel when parents are encouraging and cheering for all of the players.”

What if I registered as a Coach, but cannot field a team?
By registering as a Coach at your facility, you are simply indicating that you will give your best effort to recruit a team at your facility. If you are unable to recruit a team, we will assist you with providing refunds to your players and help the other teams in the league adjust their game schedules.
What is the refund policy?
ALL players may receive a FULL refund prior to ordering the team kits. Most facilities do not order team kits until 20 business days prior to their first game, so you may request refunds for all of your players prior to ordering team kits.
What if I originally indicated in my Coach Registration that I would have 3 teams this year, but now I think I will only have 2 teams?
No problem, we ask that you communicate with us consistently about player recruitment at your facility and let us know as soon as possible if you believe your number of teams will change. We will work with you and the other Coaches in your league to make the necessary schedule adjustments. Again, this will be a year of adaptability and flexibility!
