See FEES page on website.
All new players will buy a uniform this season and pay a program fee.
These are the only two expenses paid to AIA, there are no additional fees to AIA.
​
What is a typical tournament schedule?
Teams will play in roughly 10 tournaments from April 1st through July 21st. Exact weekends will be determined after roster composition to provide the best schedule for each individual team to challenge them appropriately. Regional teams will play locally 7-8 times and travel to places like Omaha/Minneapolis/Kansas City 2-3 times during the season. NIKE and ELITE teams will require more travel in their schedule.
