• Spaces not held for any team not completely registered by 5/15 cutoff date.
• $50 late fee for any team registration not completed by May 15. We have instituted this policy because the leagues have grown so large that starting them has become unmanageable if we are still waiting for last minute registrations. With everyone done by the cutoff date, we can have schedules and court assignments up that week and the leagues will start smoothly benefiting all of the teams that registered early. Please help us by finishing your registration on time. Note: that rosters can be adjusted up to 7/4 but payments must be complete by 5/15 to avoid late fee.
• 5/15 postmark date for mailed checks will count as being received by cutoff date.

  – League play
