Team coaches or administrators can reserve space by mailing a $800 team deposit to Homegrown Lacrosse, 2204 W 21st St., Minneapolis, MN 55405. Deadline is November 20th. Space will most likely fill up before deadline. Spots will be reserved on a first come first serve basis. Contact Aron Lipkin at 612-823-3919 with any questions.
Step 2. Register Your Players: Once your team deposit is reserved and space is confirmed you will have two options for your players to register. Please consider both and email or call Aron Lipkin to let him know which way you would like to go.
Option 1: Online via Homegrown - (A $60 administrative fee will be added to cover the cost of the registration system fees) Homegrown will set-up a team link for you within our registration system where players can register their contact info and sign waivers electronically. Our registrar will provide you with roster updates per your requests.
Option 2: On your own - Team's who want to handle registration and waiver collection on their own will need to submit a finalized roster form and a waiver for each player.
