Other Program Information

Players could be on teams based out of Riverview, Earl Grey, Valour, Corydon, Fort Garry, or St. Vital.

Coaches and volunteers are always needed. Each team requires a volunteer coach, and if possible an assistant coach and manager. Any parent willing to volunteer should indicate so when they register their child.

Participants need to wear runners with non-marking soles and shorts with no pockets or belt loops. Jerseys will be supplied, but need to be returned to the coach after the last game of the season. There is a fee for non-returned jerseys, which varies with the club (e.g. $40 for RVCC teams, $50 for Norberry CC teams).
