If you're already a coach of a team, you can also register a full or partial team of players. From the registration dashboard, click ‘Register a Team’ or from the side menu, select ‘Registration and then ‘Team Registration’. Please note, by registering a team you are volunteering as Head Coach.
Note: All Gridiron coaches will need to pass a National Background Check.
