FEES

All players have a non-refundable registration fee.  Once teams are formed, players will be invoiced for the season fees.  Fees range in price based on the age group and level team - click below to see the total costs for each team in NIVA.

Fundraisers

NIVA offers OPTIONAL fundraisers that can help offset fees.  Fundraisers are open to any boy or girl in NIVA - any team, any program!  The timeline of the fundraisers lines up with our boys teams in the fall, girls teams in the winter and spring travel in the spring but you do not have to participate in that season to sell and earn!
