There are a few changes to how we are doing registration this year, explained on the registration form, but here are the highlights.
1. Registration Fee: $50 each per player for the first two players. For families with more than 2 players, it is $25 for each additional registration. Registration fee covers expenses for season and includes a jersey.
2. Fundraising: There are three options for fundraising this year being Frozen Pizza, KwikTrip Carwash Cards, and Gourmet Dip Mixes. You can do one, two, or all three if you wish. As we finalize each of these, we will let you know how much we raise in funds for each sale - with the goal of each player raising $100. As always, a buyout option is available, costing $100 up front.
3. Volunteering: The expectation is that a parent/guardian work shifts for two regular season games and one shift during the Branch Tournament. In order to ensure everyone shares the responsibility, this year we are starting a "ransom" program. I know it sounds harsh, but many other communities around us have this policy. At the start of the season, each family will be required to provide a check (or cash if you desire) for $200 made out to Branch Baseball and Softball. These checks WILL NOT BE CASHED if you fulfill your volunteer obligations, and will be either returned to you or destroyed when your volunteer duties are complete. They will only be cashed if your responsibilities are not met. We understand there may be extenuating circumstances (including being gone during the tournament) - which we can work with, as long as you let us know ahead of time. As always, if there are any financial issues preventing you from doing this, please let us know - and we will confidentially come to an agreement. The same goes for registration fees. We want everyone to have a chance to play.
4. Branch Tournament: Dates this year are July 15 - 18, 2026. As always, we would like all Branch teams to participate, but it depends on availability and interest from other communities. Please use the sign up link on the registration form to pick your spot to volunteer while registering.
5. Payments: We will have two opportunities to drop off payments, cash or check. When you complete your registration, calculate your total and that is what you owe. If you forget, just show up at the drop of dates (location TBD, likely Branch Station pending thier approval) and we will let you know what you owe. The planned drop off dates are Sunday March 22 12-3p and Thursday April 16th 6-8pm. If you cannot make those dates, just let us know and we will make arrangements.
Please reach out with any questions.
Season Kickoff Meeting on Sunday April 26th at the ballpark, more information to follow. Practices could start on April 27th (weather dependent), and the season starts the week of Memorial Day.
Thank you!
Once this form is completed, confirmation of responses will be sent to you.
