SPECIAL REQUESTS: One buddy request can be made during the registration process. Please read the buddy request process closely to ensure it is valid.

TEAM FORMATION: Teams will be loosely based on grade level and the school attended by players. Genders will be combined. Grades will be combined if there are not enough players in a specific grade to run a league on its own (for example, 9th-12th 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 needed. 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 the Friday before practices start.
