DMV ID CARDS
DMV ID card is required for all age groups. The ID card will be collected at the start of practice and returned to the parents at the end of the season. On game days all players are required to have their DMV ID cards with them for check-in. If a player does not have their ID card for game check-in, that player will not be allowed to play in the game. If the same player does not have their ID card at the next game check-in, that player will not be able to play for the rest of the season.
