Vipers Lacrosse Club

Welcome to Vipers Lacrosse - 2024/25 Registration

____________________________________________________________________________

In an attempt to simplify the process we are moving to a single registration that includes Fall Ball and Spring Registration in one (for High School players).  This will allow families to register once and be done.  It also provides enough headroom for payment plans that span multiple months.  This is particularly convenient for families with multiple players or those of us that would like to space out the registration fees instead of paying one lump sum. 

Youth will register for Spring below.

We have three options for High School Registration Dues:

• Pay in Full
• Pay over 4 months
• Pay over 6 months
• Pay over 8 months

**It is important to note that all spirit wear, required team equipment ( HS only: helmet, bag), Booster Club Membership, spirit gear, your volunteer deposit and any donations that you make are DUE IN FULL at the time of registration and will NOT be a part of the payment plan.

Vipers Lacrosse uses Sports Engine for communication and scheduling.  If you are not a previous user, a new account will need to be created in the parent or guardian's name.  

Youth Spring Season - Our spring season is for all Vipers 1st-8th grade. It will start at the end of January/beginning of February and run through April. Club lacrosse takes a rest during this time so all players can play with their school programs.  Spring season is our main season and will include weekly practices and games.  Practices pick up in February and games usually start weekly after Spring Break.

• 1st/2nd - $160
• 3rd/4th - $310
• 5th-8th - $550

High School Fall Ball - $400 / $200  for Varsity Football Players joining after end of season.  The full $200 will be refunded if Varsity football goes all the way and the boys are unable to play end of Nov/December.

Fall Ball is required for all Vipers Lacrosse Players with the exception of Varsity football players.  We will offer a late add reduced rate Fall Ball Option for Varsity football players who plan to join after their playoffs/state run has ended.  In order to play in the UT Longhorn Shoot you must be a registered and paid Fall Ball player.

Additional Costs outside of registration:

• Travel: We have removed the travel fee.  There is no way for us to accurately estimate travel costs for the season before we set the schedule and determine how many weekend trips we will have.  Parents will be responsible for paying for the travel costs incurred. Fundraising can offset this. THE MORE WE DO THE LESS WE PAY. We need everyone to help with these efforts.
