For Middle and High School students, earn volunteer hours to use towards your community service requirements.

Volunteer Registration

IMPORTANT: Please communicate with us if your child is unable to attend regularly. Space is limited, so if a  registered player does not attend AND parents have not communicated with us, then we may need to de-register that player to allow for someone on the waiting list to participate.
