  • Registration - $300
    • This includes a baseball hat but does not include tournament fees (only for the 13AA, 14AA, or 15/16AA travel teams).
    • This DOES include a uniform jersey for each player with their last name and number. You will have 3 number choices as part of your registration and will be contacted if an additional number needs to be chosen.
       
  • Tournament Fees (optional)
    These fees are only for the 13AA or 14AA travel teams if the decision is made to field a team based on the skill set of available players. They may vary depending on the number of tournaments and their locations. An approximate cost of $300 per athlete is anticipated. (This fee is significantly less than club fees of $2,500-$3,500!).
