Frequently Asked Questions:
- What equipment does my child need? Sneakers are required, shin guards are recommended, athletic clothing, and of course a water bottle!
- Will there be a game every week? Yes! Since it is a league, games will be conducted each week.
- Do they get a practice time? Since it’s a league, games will mostly be played. Each session will start off with a stretch, warmup, and drills to teach the basics of the game. We then lead right into games to utilize our new skills learned.
- How do I know what team my child is on? Teams will be announced upon check-in on day one of the league. Once you check in, your child will be handed a jersey to wear each week. The color of their jersey is their set team for the season.
- Where can I find all additional league information? Our website! We constantly update our website for families to check out the most recent updates regarding all of our programs.
