Catoosa County may play against neighboring recreational agencies/organizations in some age groups depending on registration numbers. Travel may be required.
Practices can fall on any day of the week. Depending on the age group, the coach will determine those days.
We believe that youth sports provide players with so many benefits. One of the many benefits to youth sports is socialization and learning to be coachable. This is why we do not accept or facilitate PLAYER/COACH/TEAM requests. We hope to encourage players to continue to make new friends and get the opportunity to learn from new coaches.
Players that want to play up an age division should contact the office. This registration software will not allow it, but the office can manually move your player into the correct division.
**** IF YOU WANT TO COACH AND DID A BACKGROUND CHECK FOR THE FALL SEASON, YOU DO NOT NEED TO COMPLETE ANOTHER ONE. JUST MARK YES YOU WOULD LIKE TO COACH.
