Registration/Uniform Costs

The annual registration cost is $650 for in league U11-U19 players. Out of league players in their first year pay an extra fee of $250, second year $150, and third year $75. Players will also need to purchase uniforms for $125. These uniforms will be used for a two-year period.
Note: Financial Aid (scholarships) and payment plans are available.

Team Costs

In addition to the club registration costs and uniform costs, there are team costs mostly for tournament registration fees. It is estimated that these costs will be approximately $250 - $450 per player depending on the number of tournaments the team enters. These costs do not include tournament travel and lodging or camp related costs. We can discuss at our first team meeting if we want to undertake fundraising activities.
