Check out our Custom Jersey tickets and get a custom jersey with a name and number of your own choosing! Only full-time players will also be given the option during registration to select which division they wish to be placed in (if they have a preference). Full-Time registered players will have the opportunity to mutually choose one other player to be paired with and are the only form of registration that is permitted to do so. (Both individuals MUST coordinate naming each other during registration and selecting the same division to be considered, no exceptions or changes are permitted.) Only one pairing is allowed.  PART-TIME REGISTRATION:Are you only interested in or able to play a couple games during Pride Season? Sign up for part-time registration! By doing so, you can play up to 5 games this Pride Season and still get assigned to a team and a jersey in your indicated size! Part-time ticket quantities will be extremely limited and are expected to sell-out quickly; no additional Part-Time tickets will be made available once closed. Part-Time tickets are not eligible for financial assistance. Part-time players are not eligible for requesting a player pairing and waive their right to select a specific division to be drafted into, this is to give every team an equal number of part-time players on their roster. Players signing up for Part-Time will be required to select what 5 weeks they plan to attend during the registration process and are limited to only those games for their assigned teams. Part-time players are randomized just like full-time players onto balanced teams for their division.  CLUB ASSISTED REGISTRATION:RCSC strives to make all of our activities as inclusive and accessible as possible. We've allocated a number of Full-Time tickets to grant individuals needing assistance with participation. The past few years have been tough and we are a community that supports one another. No explanation of your financial situation is needed! If you need assistance, please DO NOT register yet, fill out the following form: <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSelvVKCQdim1DspL4YcTpnxCmU-8ZUHi_NngPdIsMvIWBK2QA/viewform?usp=dialog" target="_blank">Requesting Registration Assistance</a>, and you will receive an email with a custom promo code! Please note, club-assisted registration will run until registration closes, a request is typically responded to within 1 business day. Once an email has been sent the code and spot is only promised for 24 hours. Once the 24 hour period has lapsed there is no promise from RCSC that an additional spot can be found. WHAT ABOUT SUBBING / REGISTRATION IS SOLD OUT:Off-book subs are not permitted for PRIDE Season. Once registration is full, no new players can be added to teams or participate in the season unless a paid player resigns their spot. City contracts and liability insurance binders limit the maximum number of players for field usage; therefore registration caps are beyond RCSC's ability to affect.  Once both part-time and full-time tickets have sold out the subs list will open and only available for full-time interest on a first-come, first-serve basis. The cost for those called off the subs list will be $13 for each game remaining in the season, and subs will be mandatory-assigned a team and provided a jersey. Requests for financial assistance will be considered but are not a guarantee.  SPONSORS:<ul><li>Thank you to <a href="https://www.raincityfit.com/" target="_blank">Rain City Fit</a> for sponsoring us again this season!</li></ul>ABOUT US:RCSC’s mission is to provide the community with a safe environment to meet, play soccer, and build community.
