How are referees Selected?
Referees are recruited through a job posting and interview. We are always looking for experienced individuals who are interested in contributing their sports knowledge and skills as officials.  Our officials are trained to teach the game as the youth learn. If there are suggestions or concerns regarding the officials, please contact [email protected]
How are teams put together?
Teams are arranged by the school that is listed at time of registration. If there are specific requests in the notes they are taken into account above the school listing. However, we do not move registration up or down ages without consent of the primary adult who paid.
What Happens if my child's team doesn't have a coach?
They will still play! The responsibilities will be split up between all parents to make the team successful, but no practices will be allowed until a background check on a coach has been completed and approved.
When will my child's practice be?
Practices are not required by coaches. Since they are volunteer it is up to the discretion of the coach when or where or if they will hold practice. We will have some practice slots available depending on what we receive from the schools. Coaches will have the chance to sign up at the meeting for those practice slots. 
Why is the League Held All the way across town?
We understand that many different areas of St. George City are involved in our programs and it is our goal to create hubs around the city to have teams not travel as far. If participant numbers permit, we will hold to it.
When do I receive my child's jursey?
Before the first day of games, we will reach out to coaches and let them know of a time and day to pick up team jerseys. If they are not picked up by a coach or there is not a coach assigned to the team yet then they will be brought out to the sports locations on the first day of games. For youth basketball, you must purchase a Jr. Jazz Jersey for $15.00 at the Recreation Center.
