We want to guarantee a minimum of 18 games to each team; this includes regular season games and cup games. We expect to start playing no later than May 19th (weather permitting) with the final games being played October 4th.
The cost for each team is $3,500 plus a refundable team bond of $250 for Men’s teams and $100 for Ladies’. A deposit of $500 must be paid at the time of registration for the team to be accepted into the appropriate league. If a team withdraws after April 30th, all funds paid will be forfeited, except for the refundable bond. The refundable team bond is to be provided as a separate payment (credit card, cheque or cash); fines will be deducted from this bond and the remaining balance will be returned at the end of the season. Bond cheques are to made payable to Thornhill Soccer Club.
All team fees and bonds must be paid prior to a team being able to play. This will be strictly enforced with no exceptions.
To register your team, please use the online registration system, register your team and pay the $500 deposit by no later than April 17th, 2015.
