We have our captains selected. To complete the team rosters, we will host a draft night with them on Dec 3rd  at Hector’s at 7 p.m. Shortly after that meeting, the captains will contact their teams and let you know where you will be playing starting in January.

Stag night is set for Dec 17th, 2024 at Hector’s starting at 7pm. This will allow you to meet your other teammates, grab your jersey, and have a cold beer.

The season will kick off Thursday, Jan. 9th, at 12 noon. For 16 weeks, games will be played every Thursday between 12 and 3 p.m. The complete schedule should be available in December before the holidays.
