WINTER SPORTS REGISTRATION
We hope everyone is enjoying the Fall as we have now opened registration for Winter sports. Please go to http://register.smwarriors.com to register for Basketball and Cheerleading.

As planned, practices can begin in early November with games December-February. Please note there are tryouts for Grades 7-8. Players MUST participate in tryouts to be considered for the Competitive team.

Girls Contact: Dan Rankin | dlr5909@gmail.com
Cheerleading (Girls 4-8th grade): Fee TBD
Since we have not had a Cheerleading team in recent winter seasons, registration is currently $0 so we can gauge interest. If there are enough players and coaches for a team or teams, we will set a budget and charge a fee at that time (the Fall fee was $50).

NOTES:
-
A "Family Fee" of $100 is charged to each family 1x for the 2021-22 school year; this will be added at checkout to your first registration for the school year.
-
Late registrations will have $15 added to them. This is in line with other area leagues; more importantly (although it may not seem like it), late registrations can cause a lot of additional work for coaches and coordinators trying to finalize rosters and team sizes, so we are trying to discourage the practice. Registration deadlines have been better aligned with the start of each sport's season to help.
-
Refunds for withdrawals will also be charged $15. Again, this is in line with other area leagues and is an effort to discourage the practice so we can be more certain of numbers when finalizing rosters. Having said all that, if you or someone you know has a financial situation that is preventing a child from being registered, please let us know. We want every child to have the opportunity to play!
-
In order for players to participate in a St. Michael athletic opportunity, at least one parent/guardian must complete Play Like a Champion training course for parents. This is a one-time training focused on promoting character education through sports participation.
-
League paperwork must be completed online this year. After you have registered and paid via http://register.smwarriors.com, go to the diocese page to complete the online forms:https://www.dioceseregister.com/register/.
