Registration Information: Registration for the Spring 2023 Season opens on Friday Feb 3rd. 7PM captains registration opens and 8PM all other players.

A team is formed when 4 players register and pay within 48 hours. Each team must have 4 players minimum and 6 players max. Any team that does not have the required 4 registered players when registration closes will revert to incorporating free agents until the number reaches the minimum or may be split up. We will do our best to keep groups together in the case that a minimum 4 players is not met.

• Captains: If you plan on being the captain of a team, you will need to register first, as a Team Captain, create your team name and then have players register under your team name.
• Team colors: Team colors will change every season and will picked at random to mix it up season to season!

How to register?

• I plan to create a team: If you plan to create a team you will need to register as a team captain (see above). Then you can tell your friends to register as a team player and join your team. To become an official team, you must register 16 players.
• I plan to join a team: If you already know with which team you are going to play on, you will need to register as a team player. Keep in mind that you can't randomly join any team; captains may ask that a player be removed from their team prior to the close of registration. Captains can email HERE to move a player from their team but only after the captain has communicated with the player first and explained why.
• I want to play but I don't have a team: That's fantastic! This league is about fun and making new friends. Register as a free agent if you are signing up solo, or if you have a small group of friends, create a "small group" and we will do our best to place you all together!

Sponsorship - Individual teams are not allowed sponsors. We do allow league sponsors so that everyone in the league benefits. Inquires about sponsorship can be sent HERE

Divisions - Spring 2023 Registration will open with 2 divisions. BOTH DIVISIONS ARE COMPETITIVE. Games are only competitive when the skill levels match up. Divisions are based off of skill level.
