Cost and support

Free to play, and here's why

The league is paid for by a Get Moving grant from Seattle Parks & Recreation, and the gym and meeting room are donated. Nothing is required from your family.

$0

Team registration

Free for all four divisions. Your captain registers up to five players in one submission. If your family can add an optional $175 donation at checkout, it covers another team's season — but it is never required to play.
