Boys Summer Elite

All players who make one of our summer teams will be guaranteed a spot in our program for as long as they want one. Our commitment to you is that as long as you participate, season to season, we guarantee you a roster spot. If all of our players wish to return every season, we won’t try out any new kids. At the end of each season we will ask you if you are planning on returning for the following season. If you are, you will be required to put down a deposit and on to the next season we roll! If any participants choose not to return, we will try out new players for those positions. No need to commit in advance to us for full-year or multi-year commitments, it is our job to ensure you are enjoying your experience and earn your business back year after year.
