SPRING registration for INDIANA and KENTUCKY opens December 1st, and registration deadlines vary by location.

For Indiana the deadline is February 26th for all league locations excluding Pike (Indy West). The deadline for Pike (Indy West) is March 5th.

For Kentucky the deadline for all league locations is March 5th.

After the registration deadline, late registration is available, but based upon availability and is not guaranteed. Once registration is full we will build a waitlist and fill openings from the waitlist on a first come - first served basis. A $25.00 increase in registration will apply and you will be placed on any team that has openings in your grade division. Buddy requests are less likely to be met during late registration, so please don't wait until the last minute if your child is wanting to play with some of their friends!
