• Free Agent-- Signing up as a free agent means that you have signed up individually and VAVi will place you on a team with other free agents and/or small groups. We do not guarantee we can find a spot for everyone, but we do want everyone to play and will do our best to get you on a team.
  
  
• Small Group-- Small group registration is designed for TWO or MORE friends that would like to be placed on the same team together.
  
  You can also sign up full teams this way if you don’t want to pay for a whole team on one credit card.
  
  Each member of a small group will register and pay for themselves individually.
  
  Please see the Registration Process below.
  
  If a small group reaches the specified amount of players on one team (please see the Rules page on the particular sport you are registering for and the minimum number of players it requires), it is considered its own TEAM and VAVi WILL NOT add others to the roster (there IS NOT a maximum number of players once your small group has reached the specified minimum amount and it has become its own team).
  
  If a small group has not reached the specified number of players by the deadline (deadlines differ for each league and are sent out via email when the league is close to full), VAVi will combine other small groups and free agents to make a complete team.
  
  DEADLINE INFO: There are some sports where the deadline to sign up can come as early as a month to two months before the start of the league.
  
  As a general rule for all sports, we say that there is no deadline to sign up, but as soon as the event reaches maximum capacity we will close off the registration to new signups.
  
  We do our best to notify small groups that have not yet filled up as to a new deadline of when they must get the rest of their team members signed up.
  
  After that deadline there is no guarantee of them being placed on your team as all registered players at that time will be combined to form teams.
  
  SMALL GROUP REGISTRATION PROCESS: Here is the process every member of a small group needs to follow to sign up online.
  
  PLEASE READ CAREFULLY:
  
  1. Go to the league that you would like to register for and click signup online.
     
     
  2. Click on small group member and “I agree” to the waiver. Please make sure you read the waiver.
     
     
  3. Fill out the required information about yourself on the next page and click “Continue”
     
     **The first person to sign up in the group will choose the option to create a NEW small group.
     
     Give your small group a name that others will identify with (this may be a team name, or simply your own name, e.g. “Tommy Lane’s Small Group” or “Homerun Kings”).
     
     Please enter an approximate number of the amount of players you expect to give us a good idea about our rosters.
     
     **If your small group has already been created, and you are a joining member, you will be asked to choose which small group you want to join when signing up.
     
     
  4. Each person in the small group only pays for themselves (including the person that creates the small group).
  
  
• Team-- A team captain or organizer may sign up an entire team. There are 3 options to choose from when signing up your team:
  
  
  1. To sign up online, simply click the yellow "Signup Online" button under the specific league for which you are would like to register.
     
     Select team registration and click "I Agree" and Continue.
     
     Fill out the form and click Continue.
     
     NOTE: If some of your team roster information is not quite ready, please do not let this deter you from signing up.
     
     You can sign up and pay, forgo your team roster information, and then you may log back into our system under the member login link with your username and password to make changes to your team roster, team name, and t-shirt sizes.
     
     Team captains may make roster changes up until 48 hours before the league begins.
