For players who want to play in the full-year program (Summer, Winter, and Spring), do NOT sign-up for the Summer Program. Please sign-up for tryouts instead. The Summer Program begins in late May and runs through July. In early August, participants are released to their high school program. In order to participate in the summer program, just sign-up online. No try-out is required.
- Players will train with their respective age group, and if space is available, then they can be added to summer tournament rosters.
- The cost for the program is $375. Summer tournament fees are an additional cost on top of the $375 fee.For those who want to come back after their high school seasons to participate in the Winter & Spring, they can attend the supplemental tryout in November. If they make a team at supplemental tryouts, then a $300 credit will be applied to the full year program cost. There is no guarantee that there will be open spots in November.
