• The head coach is the final decision-maker in the composition and play of each team.

• Both player and parents (legal guardians) shall represent the club appropriately by demonstrating good sportsmanship, team spirit, self-discipline, and respect for others.

• Registration will be $280 per child for this season. Each player will need to purchase a new uniform for this year, if s/he did not have one from last year. The cost of a new uniform will be around $120.

• A player may not participate in both the travel and recreational program at the same time.

4th and 5th, Grades - Each team will follow the playing rules of his/her league (e.g. rotate 5 players during each quarter of the first half of play).
