Team and Individual Fees
Payment Structure: discount due 2 weeks prior to new season, all payments due 1 week prior to season. This is so the League has a firm understanding of which teams are playing, and in which conferences, so we can make a complete season schedule prior to the second game of the season rather than scheduling games a week or two at a time.
Full Team payment: $8,985 (Due by October 7)
Full Team paid by October 1: $8,085 (SAVE 10%)
Individual Player payment: $599 (Due by October 7)
Individual Player paid by October 1: $569 (SAVE 5%)
Individual Monthly Payment (2 months): $299 per payment (Due by October 7)
Half-Season players: $399 (Due by October 7)
A fully paid team has a roster maximum of 18 players, so those teams can decide for themselves on having half-time players. Teams that are not paid in full may have a maximum of 2 half season players on their roster.
Players may not pay as a full individual player and then indicate they are paying for a half-season on two different teams. Players that want to play has half season players on two different teams must pay the Half-Season payment twice.
Every team must have a full roster and be paid in full by the start of the season. Teams without a full roster risk being dropped from the league or combined with other players. There is a very limited amount of quality ice times available, and we require teams to be fully paid in order to participate.
