A Note From Leadership

Why Registration Has Increased

We want to be fully transparent with our Giants families about this year's pricing. After careful review, the board made the decision to adjust registration to ensure we can deliver the level of programming and organization our athletes deserve.

  • 01Equipment recovery challenges. Last season we encountered significant difficulty recovering all issued equipment at the end of the year. Replacement and restocking costs have impacted our operating budget directly.
  • 02Rising field & facility costs. The cost of securing practice facilities, game fields, and space for our athletes continues to increase year over year across the Lake Norman area.
  • 03Raising the bar organizationally. To provide the level of structure, support, and experience our families expect from the Giants, we need the resources to do it right.
