If you are new to the program, on the Forms page, please READ, COMPLETE and sign the Player Contract (athlete also signs in middle of page), COVID-19 Waiver, Code of Conduct & Medical Waiver (athlete also signs), Uniform, Volunteer and Information forms.

We rely on volunteers to get things done. This year, in addition to each athlete’s registration fee there is a $100 per family volunteer deposit, which you can earn back by volunteering a total of ten (10) hours at meets during the season. Otherwise, your deposit will be considered donated and used to help pay operating expenses and for uniforms, supplies, and equipment. There are a lot of volunteer opportunities (see Volunteer Form-2nd page), which range from easy to painfully easy, and pitching in to help is part of the experience. Once you have contributed your volunteer time, you can fill out a Request for Refund (on the Forms Page). If you do not complete and submit a Request for Refund by no later than 7 days prior to picnic (or pick up your check no later than the picnic), your deposit will be deemed a donation to the club. Refund checks will be at the picnic.
Can be made payable to Valley Raiders or VRTC. Returned checks will incur a $25 fee. You can Venmo @valleyraiders (if you see our logo, that is correct page-no confirmation tel # needed). Cash at in-person registration or practice.
The above may change depending on when we start. Please note that if you do not provide notice prior or don’t have all the forms (including Birth Certificate) and fees submitted by 3/5, no refund will be allowed.
