HOTSHOTS FALL 2020
HOTSHOTS FALL 2020
Our schedule will include games with Santa Ynez Valley Hotshots either at home in Santa Barbara or away in SYV.
New players (have never played lacrosse before) are required to have attended an Ignite Beginner's Clinic and a few Training Sessions so they are adequately prepared to experience some success in a competitive setting. We also use this time to make sure the player likes the sport before the parents invest in the necessary equipment to play.

REFUND POLICY/SCHOLARSHIPS
Splitting up the Player Fee into 2 payments is possible however we ask that the full fee be paid during registration if able. Refunds or partial refunds are made on a case by case basis. $100 of the player fee is non-refundable as it is used to pay for unrecoverable hard costs such as uniforms, which are ordered far in advance of the start of the season.
SCHOLARSHIPS
Scholarships are available and granted on a case by case basis. If you would like to donate money to be put towards scholarshipping athletes, please contact us.
Equipment
All players must provide their own lacrosse equipment to participate in the Hotshots Spring Program.
Hotshots loaner equipment is designed to be used for "Try Lacrosse" opportunities. This equipment is necessary to have on hand so we can come to your school and introduce the lacrosse to new players and help grow the game!
We believe it's important to invest in your son's lacrosse experience and we can help direct you to many affordable options.
