Uniform Policy
In order for your child to have their choice of Jersey number and their name on the back to their Jersey, your registration fees must be paid in full by Equipment/Uniform Sizing on June 9th. If your fees are not paid by June 1st your child will not receive their choice of jersey number and their name will not be on the back of the Jersey. No Exceptions will be made. There will also be no guarantee that you will have your child's Jersey for the 1st Game, Team Pictures, Certification or any Jamboree's the organization participates in. The reason we are implementing this policy this year is due to the amount of time if takes for Jersey's to be produced which can run anywhere from 4 to 8 weeks. Therefore if your registration fees are not paid in full by June 1st, you will not be part of the initial Jersey order. The 2nd Jersey order will be placed on July 23rd.
