WILL THERE BE CUTS?

Although we do our best to keep all athletes, there may have to be cuts made by Jamboree, depending on the number of people who register. Each football team is allowed up to 35 on the roster plus 5 inactive "Redshirt" players who suit up for games but can only become active once PAR has been met for all other players. Red shirt programs are managed by individual organizations and are not mandatory. If a team decides to offer "Grey Shirt" players (which is optional and up to the organization), these are ‘inactive” players that will have a developmental season and are not eligible to suit up for games.

VOLUNTEER REQUIREMENTS

Each family is required to complete 10 volunteer hours per registration (15 hours max for families with multiple registrants) and submit a $400 volunteer deposit check. Failure to complete required hours by the end of the season or a no-show for a scheduled shift will result in your check being cashed.  Opportunities to volunteer will be posted on the team volunteer sign up page. Hours are not prorated.  Families can opt to buy out the volunteer requirement by paying $350 up front during the registration process (this payment is not payment plan eligible). NEW THIS SEASON - the volunteer hours for any registrant who brings in a $500+ sponsorship will be considered complete!

IS THERE A PAYMENT PLAN  OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AVAILABLE?

Yes! There is an option to pay $250 up front, then $100 monthly until payments are completed, but not during Early Bird Registration. This can be selected at checkout starting 3/15/24. For further financial assistance please click here.
