COMMITMENT:
Being part of a travel team is a family commitment. We are a family and operate as one. Each player on the team is valuable and needed in order to compete on a national level. Coaches will do their best to schedule practice times and locations that are in the best interest of the majority of the team. The expectation is that every player on the travel team attend all tournaments. If you need special consideration, please talk to a coach about this.
COSTS:
* Uniform costs: are paid for by the parents and can be offset through various fundraising activities.
* Tournament: our goal is to attend 6-8 tournaments during a season (April - August). Tournaments generally run from $350-$400 (Approximately $50 per player) depending on the event. Tournament costs are paid for by player fees and fundraising.
* Travel: travel expenses are paid for by parents and can be offset with our various fundraising opportunities.
TRYOUTS:
Tryouts are typically held annually, in the January-February timeframe. Tryouts are held indoors, and the dates are announced through our email announcements to our league participants, and on our social media pages (Facebook & Instagram). If you are interested in having your child tryout for one of our teams, keep an eye on your email, our Facebook pages, as well as our Instagram pages.
