Registration availability in all leagues is limited due to the number of staff and volunteers available, as well as the availability of facility space. Registration is on a first-come, first-served basis.  

This 6-game league will feature one practice a week (day and time based on gym availability) and one game on Saturdays.  All teams are guaranteed to have at least one hour of indoor practice space per week. The score is kept for the 5th grade (no score in the 4th grade to create a learning environment). General youth sports jerseys are mandatory and can be purchased at the CARD Office for $18.  

Registration Information

Registration Deadline: December 29, 2025, or when a division is filled- whichever comes first.

TEAM FORMATION: Teams will be loosely based on grade level and the school attended by players. Genders will be in separate divisions. Grades will be combined if there are not enough players in a specific grade to run a league independently (for example, 1st and 2nd grades may be combined into one league if necessary). All team formations are at the discretion of CARD staff.

• Skills Evaluations: CARD will contact participants for a mandatory skills evaluation if deemed necessary. Skills evaluations will not be necessary for all schools.

TEAMSIDELINE APP: Download the Teamsideline app to access your team’s practice & game schedule, and to communicate with your coach! App information will be made live for each team on the Friday before practices start.
