- Please consider contributing your time and talents to the team. We are in need of parent/guardian volunteers for every aspect of the club.
- Players are required to participate in at least one team fundraising activity.
- If you are unable to pitch in with your time, please consider a donation to the team which can further help the program. Donations can be made to any team leader.
