Pre-season checklist
Start with the school steps, then review any event-specific requirements and club choices. Not every item is required for every family.
Track your next steps
Check off completed steps on this device and print the checklist when useful. Complete each form with the organization listed; this page does not prefill or submit forms.
School instructions still need confirmation
The coach has not yet confirmed the exact forms, fees and deadlines. Check each school step with the coach before relying on this guide. A tick records your own progress; it does not submit a form or confirm eligibility.
