A. - Parents are expected to help out their players team. Adult supervision is required for all of our players under the age of 18. Volunteer opportunities need to be served by a responsible adult who is over the age of 18. This person does not need to be related to the player, but needs to indicate and supervise the player they are volunteering with.

Note from us.
We dont want your money; we would prefer your involvement. As we grow so does the need for help. Some of the volunteer opportunities - such as the road side clean up, concessions, community league event - do bring money into our club  from outside supporters.
