Games will be played on Sundays at either noon or 1:15 p.m. and will require some travel. Home games are played at the Garden City High School on the turf field. The season consists of five games and runs from September 23rd through October 21st. The rain date will be October 28th.

Participation requires that players become members of the USFHA and pay a league fee to LIFHA. Total cost to participate is approximately $80. LIFHA will provide T-shirts, mouth guard and officials. As LIFHA is currently preparing schedules, we are asking that all player registrations be submitted no later than Wednesday, September 13th.
