What equipment does my child need to play?
The only thing your child will need is a glove. We recommend bringing your own bat and helmet. If you plan on having your child wear cleats, they can not have metal spikes.
How do registration requests work?
We provide a few options to make requests on your registration. Our team does our best to fit your preferences. All requests are not guaranteed and a first come first serve basis. This request is only available during early bird registration.
Priority: A required field will ask which of the following 2 requests you prioritize. We will work hard to try to accommodate as many requests as possible, but we cannot guarantee anything. Therefore, we ask which you would prioritize to help us in the process.
Practice Night: You will have the option to rank the nights of the week (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday) from 1 to 4, with 1 being the most desired and 4 being the least.
Friend request: Write your request (first and last name) in the provided textbox to request to be placed on the same team.
