Fees
Registration fees vary by division and are required to fund the league. Registration fees are collected to cover several costs, including but not limited to: uniforms, ongoing field maintenance and improvements, equipment such as baseball and stripe paint, as well as umpire fees, to name a few. A full accounting of the league finances are available at opening day and by request from the league President (please allow time for the creation of such documents if it does not already exist at the time of request).
We believe every child should have the opportunity to play, and scholarships or payment plans are available upon request. These are evaluated on a case by case basis.
