Other organizations or groups that serve LGBT youth are encouraged to join the league. Youths must be under the age of 23; two staff members (24 or older) may play on the team. Each team must have a captain who can attend a league meeting.
There is no entry fee. Interested persons should contact their local LGBT youth organizations or e-mail the Youth Pride Center at youthpridecenter@gmail.com
