Members:
Soon we will be publishing our charter which provides rules that govern the association.
Highlights:
-Each group (youth, High School) has a budget. A budget is presented to the board and to the members before the season and put a vote to accept the budget.
The parents vote for the head coach each year.
-Each parent who has registered and paid their yearly dues is eligible to vote, nominate and be an officer.
Special Thanks:
