FAQ

Ages 3-4 usually fit Little Tykes, ages 5-6 usually fit Rising Rookies, Chelan and Manson girls ready for local team play usually fit CYF Rec, and girls ready for a higher travel commitment can look at Silvers.

Silvers tryout registration is open now. Little Tykes, Rising Rookies, and CYF Rec are currently using notification lists and are expected to open registration near the beginning of the new year.

Families can share sibling or teammate requests when the form asks for them. CYF considers those requests, but team balance, coach availability, age group, and roster size come first.

Little Tykes, Rising Rookies, Rec, and sponsorship payments use Square checkout when those forms are active. Silvers tryout applications do not collect payment up front.

Fees and sponsorship support help cover equipment, jerseys, field supplies, tournament costs where applicable, and the practical costs that keep the season organized.

CYF can choose how visibly to present hardship or scholarship options. Families with cost concerns should contact the board directly so the conversation can be handled privately.

Exact practice and game details usually come after registration closes, coaches are confirmed, and teams or groups are built. The schedule page shows the current public timing guidance.

Families should watch email first. Teams may also use GameChanger or another team communication path once rosters and coaches are set.

Yes. Sponsors can note receipt or tax-letter needs on the sponsorship form, and CYF can follow up after payment confirmation.
