REGISTRATION INSTRUCTIONS
Registration will be a 'Team Registration' initiated by a COACH,
Individuals can register as "Free Agents" to be put on teams that have roster spots available.
*TEAM REGISTRATION*
If you have been in communications with a coach and you know you are part of a Team,
DO NOT register till you receive the invitation email or the Team Code from the Coach.
Once you receive either the invitation email or team code,
you will have 48hrs to complete and pay for your players registration.
Coach: Team Registration Instructions LINK
Coaches will register their team (at least 9 players, including a team name)
and from the email sent to the Coach after registration, he/she will send
out invitation emails to their player families to register and pay.
A team code will also be generated that the coach can provide parents/guardians
to use to register to be on the team.
Coaches will need to invite a minimum of 9 players to a maximum of 13 players.
If a coach does not reach the max number of players to be on their team,
then the open roster spots will be filled with the "Free Agents" (individual player signups).

that wants to play Summer Ball be sure to register
as a "Free Agent" and you will be put on to a team that has roster spots available.
