Winter egistration opens on September 1st and closes on November 5th, 2023 or when the league comes first, which ever comes first. After the registration deadline, late registration is based upon availability and is not guaranteed. Once registration is full we will build a wait list and fill openings from the waitlist on a first come - first served basis.
