roster?
A: The maximum number of players for each team is 16 (11 in Under 13, Under 11 & Under 9
Divisions). There will be no exceptions, since it would be unfair for other teams. Extra players could
play for other teams needing players. Players looking for teams can go to the "Need a Team" page
available on this site.
Q: Is there a registration form I can download and mail it in like in previous tournaments?
A: No. We have enabled Online Registration for all divisions.

A: No, however, each player has to sign the "International Players Waiver Form" before their team
first match.

Q: My child is underage for a higher division, can he/she play in that division anyway?
A: Players can play in a higher division. Parents need to take into consideration that the higher

division.
Q: Do Minor Divisions (U-9, U-11 and U-13 mixed) have to pay $400 umpire fee?
