  5. Complete the quiz for each team registered. All information to pass the quizzes, including the cheat sheet, is located on our Captain's Meeting page. 
  6. Your team will need to meet the minimum number of players for the sport in order to finalize your registration. Your team will initially be placed on a waitlist and will automatically move over to the division when minimum numbers are met. 

If you are having trouble registering, please email us or call us at 530-752-5586. Common issues are gender restrictions or not having an eligible membership. If you do not see the ONE pass option as a Faculty/Staff member in the Rec Portal, you can use this direct link for the Faculty Staff ONE Pass. 

Waitlists

If you are unable to find a spot to sign your team up in a particular sport, you can place your team on a waitlist. If enough teams are on the waitlist for a particular league we will try and open up additional spots during the registration process.

Should you change your mind about playing once you have been placed in a league, your team will be assessed a $20 drop fee.  Please make sure you and your team are actually available to play as you requested. You have until the close of registration for each sport to add or drop your team without a fine.

You can also be a free agent for a particular division and team captains will have the availability to add you to their team. More info can be found on our Free Agent page.
