Competitive Registration & Fees
Highlanders Registration
To be part of our 2023-24 program and for information on team formation & tryouts please visit our Tryouts page.
Registration for the 2023/24 Season
All Highlanders players must register online by clicking the Register Now button below within 48 hours of being offered a spot on a Highlander Team. When you register, be sure to select the correct Highlanders link for your age group/birth year.
2023-24 PSC Competitive Highlanders Players
You will be able to upload a proof of birth or passport and a headshot photo of your player for the player pass during registration (see photo requirements in required documentation). You will be able to crop the photo during the registration process, but your child’s face should fill most of the frame after cropping.
If your child played in the NorCal league on a PSC Highlander team last year, you do not need to resubmit a birth certificate. Players who were previously registered with PSC (Recreation/CYSA) but did not play in the NorCal League must resubmit documentation as NorCal and CYSA are not affiliated and age must be verified in the new league. Players who played on a NorCal team, with another club will also need to resubmit proof of age and parents need to ask for a release from their previous club. A player can only play for 1 club per season.
Refund Policy
For more information, please see the Refund Policy (Competitive) on the Registration FAQs.
