and coed leagues. Each league has a variety of levels starting

How much does a team cost?
- For nine weeks of play and a tournament, teams pay between
$310 and $360 depending on when they submit their application.
This works out to be about $6 per night per player. Many
teams find a corporate sponsor for their team fee. Most matches
are officiated by RVC for teams which cost $160 extra. Teams
may choose to officiate matches themselves to save the $160
fee but someone on the team must become an RVC certified official
to do so.

What if I don’t have a team?
- No problem!
There are many teams looking for additional players and we have
a Team Forming Night every season for new members.
