Volunteers: Due to the extra requirements of managing COVID-19 protocols, the club will be charging the $50 non-volunteer fee for the winter season. The good news is that there are lots of opportunities to volunteer! Every field needs a Field Marshal to verify the attendance and health status of each player. Fill out your Volunteer Application during registration! Note: Additional fees will need to be paid for players who join a Competitive or Academy team. |
