Registration
Please click on the link below and scroll down to the blue boxes. We will close registration on 31st March to allow our Grade Managers time to put teams together. The Junior and Youth season begins 27th April.
What happens once my player is registered?
Our grade managers will be working behind the scenes putting teams together. Each team will need a coach (or two!) and a manager (10th Grade and above).
