volunteering for that sport. Coach requests can be ‘written-in’ on Registration Forms, and will be
formed on a ‘first-come-first-serve’ basis depending upon the registration submission date.
However, often times certain requested coaches teams fill quickly. we reserve the right to move
participants to alternate teams if the case requires.
