Registration is held in the foyer of the CARD Communtiy Center, 545 Vallombrosa at designated times of the year.
WHEN IS REGISTRATION?
Registration for the Spring Season is held in the first week of November. Registration for the Fall Season is held the second or third weeks of May. Registration is done in advance to allow time for uniform orders, processing rosters, coach recruitment and scheduling.
WHAT ABOUT LATE REGISTRATION?
Due to the size of the league, all participants are encouraged to register during the designated registration times. Late registration will be accepted as long as space is available on a team in the appropriate age division. If there is no space available, the child will be placed on a waiting list and may not be placed until the 1st or 2nd game. After the 2nd game, registation fees for children on waiting list not placed will be returned.

If a team is short, the coach must call the league and request an additional player from the waiting list. The first child on the waiting list will go to the team that is short a player. COACHES ARE NOT PERMITTED TO RECRUIT PLAYERS. Roster checks may be conducted periodically throughout the season.
WHAT ABOUT REFUNDS?
