Before accepting a place, review your team’s offer and PlayMetrics payment plan for the exact installment amounts and any other team-specific charges. Ask about meals, spectator admission, memberships and optional events before planning your full family budget.

Before you join
Questions from families
Does a school grade determine the team’s age division?
No. Use the official 2026–27 age chart for competitive eligibility and ask the club about the actual roster and evaluation. Grades 4–12 describe the overall pathway, not an available team for every age or tier.
Can a new player register directly?
New families should ask about current openings and an evaluation first. The May–August 2026 tryout windows have passed. Registration links are for players who have received an offer and club instructions.
What should we compare before accepting?
Review the offered team’s coach, practice assignment, tournament and travel schedule, commitment fee, tuition, additional costs and cancellation terms. Team tiers have different commitments.
