Indoor League Schedules and Information

Youth Indoor League - Session 2 Starts February 8, 2025

If you are registering a team, follow the link for team registration.  You will then need to ask your parents to complete the individual waiver.

If you do not have a team or if your child is a St. Phils player joining a St. Phils team, please use the individual registration.  

Once each team registers, the individual waiver required for each player will be communicated to you by your team manager.
