1. The player must register at his or her age or grade.

2. A request to play up must be made to the program supervisor.

3. The player must attend the evaluation day for the sport and must attend at the time designated for the requested league/level (i.e. if a player should be playing in the Mustang league but wants to play in the Bronco league, player must attend the Bronco player evaluation).

What happens if I register after the deadline?Players placed on a wait list are not guaranteed placement on a team. If you register before team formation the player will be moved off the wait list if there are enough to form an additional team. However, if you register after team formation, or if another team cannot be formed, placement will only be done when a team or teams are below the established maximum number of team participants. Players will not be added to any team one week prior to the first scheduled game.

Can I request for my child to be placed on a specific team?No, due to the nature of the program, we cannot accept any other coach, player, or carpool requests. However one mutual friendship request will be honored for players in an instructional league, pinto (8U) baseball, or grade 1 & 2 soccer. A park district request forms must be used for these requests and the guidelines listed on the form must be followed. These forms are available at Simkus Recreation Center and on our web site. Request deadlines are the same as registration deadlines (not early bird).

How do I volunteer to help?Volunteers are used for the following position:

• Coaches

• League Coordinators

• Planning Committees

Applications are available at Simkus and on the home web page of each youth sports league. These leagues can be accessed at: www.csparks.org/index.php/sports/youthsports/
