Q: How much is registration?
A:

Registration fees are $90 for for the season.  Non-Tamarac residents are required to have a current non-resident card, which can be purchased at the Tamarac Community Center for $50.  This card is good for all Tamarac sports leagues.

There is a $10 sibling discount when registering more than one child at a time.

We will also be collecting $20 for raffle tickets as part of this year's fundraiser.

League fees cover the costs for uniforms, insurance, referees, trophies, practices, games, Opening Day ceremonies and Closing Day ceremonies.

Q: What if I don't want to buy raffle tickets?
A: Everyone is required to purchase raffle tickets this year...it's part of what keeps the cost of the league so low.  However, the raffles will be worth it: we are planning on drawing two winners each week who will each win a $50.00 gift card.  In addition, we will raffle off several cash prizes at our Closing Ceremony.  So for $20.00 you can either sell them and make your money back, or have over 25 chances to win at least $50.00.

Q: What do I need to bring with me when I register?
A: You'll need to bring a copy of the player's birth certificate (no originals, please) and proof of Tamarac residency.  We accept drivers licenses and utility bills as proof of residency.

Q: Can someone else register my child for me?
A: Yes you can, but the registration paperwork and all contact numbers will need to be for the players and their parents, not the friend or relative who is signing the kids up.

Q: What forms of payment do you accept?  Do you take checks and credit cards?
A: At this time we can only accept payments via cash or money orders.  Please make money orders out to Tamarac Youth Soccer.

Unfortunately, we do not take check or credit card payments at this time.

Q: What if I already have a Tamarac non-resident card?
A: If you already have a non-resident card then the cost of registration will be $90.
