MUYSA Spring Registration
Spring registration for Travel (U10-U14, grades 3 and up) players for Spring 2024 is open and due by December 23rd, 2023. In-town registration is also open but is not due until much closer to the start of the Spring season.
Travel Program Notice:
As a reminder, we close the travel program much sooner than the in-town program. There is a lot more planning done within MUYSA and the league to get travel teams approved and schedules out on time. Ideally, we want as many players registered by 12/23/23. After that date, we will keep registration open until 1/6/24 but a late fee of $25 will be added to the registration. Once registration is closed, we will have a waitlist for each division but only if divisions need additional players. We will also monitor numbers in each division so we can do our best to balance roster numbers between teams. We are avoiding late adds once teams are created as it is additional work for our volunteers and the league in general.
Please go to www.muysa.org and login to register or make payments. If you think that you might have an account already, please use the "Forgot your Username" link at the Login screen to check any email addresses you might have opened an account with already. There have been many duplicate accounts created and a lot of confusion and duplicate registrations that can be avoided by finding existing accounts.
