Participation

Due to space and coaching capacity, we are only able to accept SOUT athletes and Unified Partners who plan on competing. If you are unable to meet the attendance requirements or attend the tournament(s), we ask that you not register for this season. You can not miss any more than 3 practices or you will not be able to participate in area games. Thank you for understanding.

Rides

Athletes are expected to find their own rides to practice. For liability reasons, it is their family/guardian or caregiver's responsibility to help them to find a reliable way to get to practices & competitions. Athletes, please talk with your family and/or caregiver to ensure you have a reliable way to get to practices & competitions, just as you would to work or school.
