Team Registration Process for Adult League Sports
Adult sport league team registrations are accepted through Team Sideline. Team captains will create a Team Sideline account (or access their existing Team Sideline account), register, pay for the team, and invite their players to join the team's roster. All team registration payments will be processed through this site. Team registration information will typically be posted on Team Sideline at least two weeks prior to the team registration period.
