• Refund Policy - Should a Player for whatever reason decide to cancel their registration, refunds will be processed using the below schedule:

Softball Leagues will start a bit earlier (mid-February) with indoor practices at local athletic facility (TBD).

• In-house (non-travel) teams are intended to be developmental in nature, where focus will be on fundamental skills, team play, sportsmanship, and rules of the sport.

• Travel team participation offers a higher level of competition, where coaches will reinforce skills and learning from in-house participation, while adding additional focus on situational awareness, game strategies, and position play knowledge.   There is an expectation from coaches and team members that travel team participation requires a higher level of individual and family commitment to the success of the program.

• Travel Player tryouts will be held on Saturday 2/1/2020 at the Keystone State Academy Complex, 662 Ditz Drive, Manheim PA.   Player attendance at this tryout is mandatory.

• In addition to the divisional registration fee, all players/families are responsible for $50 in fundraising fee, which will be added to registration charges.   Parents will be able to re-coup this investment by their child participating in the Spring fundraiser (TBD).  For families with more than 1 child participating in spring baseball and/or softball programs, only (1) $50 fundraiser fee will apply.   However, you must register all children in the Spring program at the same time in order to avoid multiple automatic $50 fundraiser fees being assess to your invoice(s).
