Registration fees are not refundable. Online registrations through Sports Engine offer registration insurance if interested. See the full refund policy below. 

  • If registering online, there is a 2.99% credit card fee. Parents are welcome to pay by check, or cash to avoid the credit card fee. Players must be registered within 72-hours of roster posting.
  • If paying a registration fee in full, by check, or cash, prior to the registration deadline, parents will receive a 5% discount on the player registration fee.
  • Siblings will receive a $50.00 discount for each sibling.
  • Credit Card Payment Plans are available.  Once parents commit their son, or daughter to play, by setting up a payment plan there are no refunds & the family must complete all payments. If paying in full, there are no refunds. If offered a spot, parents must register their son, or daughter within 72-hours of the roster being posted.  Failed payments are assessed a $25.00 fee, for each week the payment fails.
  • We encourage parents to ask questions in advance of tryouts. If a player is offered a spot, and the parents don't accept the spot, the family must pay a tryout fee of $50.00, before the player, or sibling of that player, will be considered for a future roster. The $50.00 will be applied toward fees if the player is offered a spot, or will be refunded if not offered a spot. We don't charge a tryout fee, so this is done in an effort to reduce the number of families who do not accept a spot, when offered. Discounts won in online, or part of referral contests can not be added to other discounts.

Refund Policy

Prior to the start of each season, we commit player registration fees to fund our operating budget, which includes, but is not limited to practice facility rent, facility maintenance, event registration fees, staff wages, insurance and other administrative expenditures. Because of this, refunds for player registration fees are not issued after an athlete is registered for a season, unless we are unable to field the team. Payment for uniform and practice reversible will be refunded, if the uniform and/or practice reversible is unused and returned to our office within seven days of the purchase.
