UC Bantam is exclusively available for formed teams. Teams must be formed and registered with UC Bantam to participate in the league. For more information on how to form a team, please refer to the “team start up quick info” link.
Keeping in mind that teams need to be from the same HS Area, answers are below:
- You may find a group of players in YOUR AREA that may want to get together to form a team.
- Network with your neighbors and friends to form a team from your area or find a team needing a player.
- Contact your local (HS boundary area) Bantam program director and see if a team may still need a player.
**It is the sole responsibility of the player to find a team and join the UC Bantam League.
UC Bantam is only available for formed teams, and this includes the team having a coach.
See the Leagues tab and click the Winter League for the league that begins in Nov. This has that info.
