A new Sage charter was ratified by the AGSA Executive Board in March 2022. This revision was a major update that provides clarified sections on registration, scholarships, team financials, House league interaction, etc.

 Section 4.0 is devoted to the policies and expectations for Sage 10U (and younger) teams as it relates to Sage players' participation in the House League and scheduling tournaments during the spring House League season.

Sage requires that all players register through the AGSA system.

Upon acceptance of an official offer, players will be allowed to register in the AGSA system using a unique online link created by the Registrar. Players will be charged an annual $250 AGSA Administration fee. 

In addition to the AGSA Administration fee, all Sage players  will need to pay the Arlington County field use fee. The fee is currently $80 for residents and $130 for non-Arlington residents.

Any Sage player who is also registering to play in the AGSA ‘House’ Leagues for the Spring season is eligible for a discount of $30 on the AGSA house registration fee. Contact the AGSA registrar prior to completing House registration to receive this discount (AGSAregistrar@gmail.com). 

Each individual Sage team will determine its team fee for each season. This fee will be used to pay for tournaments, doubleheaders and other team costs. These fees may not cover uniform and equipment costs, which could be charged separately.  The AGSA Admin and County fees will be paid before a player is officially placed on the roster.  The Sage team fee is calculated by each coach using an AGSA approved budget that they have submitted to the Sage Commissioners and AGSA President. The team fee varies with such things as the number of tournaments played, the amount of professional instruction retained, travel expenses, etc. 

 No player is allowed on the field with the team before the Sage team fee is paid or in full  or other financial arrangements have been made with the coach and Commissioner.  Failure to pay or make payment arrangements, may result in forfeiture of a team roster spot.  

All Sage/AGSA fees are non-refundable.
