If You Make The Team

We aim to build upon last year’s successes by forming a competitive team for the 2026 Winter/Spring Season at the girls U16 level. We are not focused on tournaments, trophies and wins, but on the athlete’s improvement and their continued love for the sport.

We will have a few positions to fill and will carry red shirts who will have the opportunity to continue to grow.

We will be training to invest in our athletes’ growth and preparing them for competition at numerous upcoming venues. This will include several initiatives to help the athlete.

The cost per player for the Winter/Spring 2026 Season (January-August) is $600 (payment options available).

This fee includes:

  • The opportunity to improve and grow both in technique and in knowledge.
  • Multiple practices a week with emphasis on player development.
  • Custom Young Guns-branded flags, shirts, shorts, mouth guards and much more.
