Every decision we make as coaches flows from these core principles.

01 Everyone Plays

Every rostered player plays a minimum of half of every game — no exceptions.

02 Balanced Teams

Teams are balanced by the region at the start of each season.

03 Open Registration

Every child who wants to play gets a spot — no tryouts, no cut lists.

04 Positive Coaching

We build confidence through encouragement. Coaches teach and inspire.

05 Good Sportsmanship

Mutual respect for teammates, opponents, officials, and parents.

06 Player Development

We develop the whole child: skills, fitness, character, and love of the game.

💬 Join the Coaches WhatsApp Group

Our coaches WhatsApp group is one of the most valuable resources we have. Coaches share ideas, ask questions, pass on updates, and support each other through the season. New and returning coaches alike find it invaluable.

To join: Send a text message to John Parkin at (801) 390-7735 and he'll add you to the group.
