Rec League
REC LEAGUE SOCCER & BASKETBALL
We are thrilled that we can offer Rec League as an opportunity for young students (3rd - 6th grade) to play sports in a fun, friendly, and competitive environment in which they are also mentored by older student athletes/Sports Leaders. Rec League was created to develop athletic skills in our elementary students. Participating students must be signed up and have paid the required fees by the dates listed in order to play. Students are expected to attend every day of the sport they signed up for.
One problem we've been having over past seasons of Rec League is children not being picked up on time, which creates problems for our staff and Sports Leadership students. Due to these issues with students not being picked up on time, there is a fee for kids being picked up late. Rec League ends at 11:30 AM each Saturday. If your child isn't picked up by 11:45 AM you will have to pay 500 THB for every 30 minutes after that.
