Other Important Information

Games: The season consists of 9 games and concludes with a league tournament, the Tonka Blast, the weekend of June 29th.  Games are typically played one night per week. K-1^st grade play their games at St. Therese and 2^nd-12^thgrade play at Freeman Park in Shorewood.  Minnewashta Elementary is also used as a back-up.

Practices: The coach will schedule a practice least at once a week throughout the season.  Practices are held at local parks and schools, usually within the Minnetonka School District.  

Player Development Week:  Clinics will be held the week of April 22nd on your game night for K-5th grade.  6-12th grade will have scrimmages on their game nights.  Coaches are expected to be there to assist Tonka United Staff coaches in running the clinics.

Playing Nights (Games): Games will begin the week of April 29th. Please Click HERE to see Playing Days/Nights for your son and/or daughter's age group.



Team Selection: Registration is based on the grade the child will enter in the 2013-2014 school year.  Players may designate ONE friend with whom they would like to play.  That friend MUST request your child as well.  There are NO multiple requests accepted.  Teams are then formed by gender, grade and school whenever possible.  We try to keep schoolmates together; however, we cannot always accommodate these requests due to the large number of players that participate in our program as well as the varying numbers of kids for each grade and school.

Players will be notified of their team at least two weeks prior to the start of the season by his/her coach.

Volunteers: We are always in need of volunteers to fulfill the following positions: coaches, assistant coaches, team managers,and assistance with the Tonka Blast.  If you are interested in volunteering, please complete the online Volunteer Registration found on our website after completing your child’s registration.

Coaches:  Coaches will receive their rosters around March 30th.  You will receive schedules at the coaches meetings to be held on April 13th.
