The Complete Registration Process
Register Now in 5 Easy Steps!
​
Please do not begin the registration process until you can complete all 5 steps in one sitting.
Step 1 - Club Registration
Athlete Registration
​
To register for the upcoming summer season, click on the above Icon and follow the instructions. Also see FAQ #4 and FAQ #8.
​
Registration closes November 2, 2024 @11:59 pm. We encourage athletes who are playing school spring sports to register before our registration deadline. Our first practice will be on Novemer 4, 2024.
Step 3 - BAND App Account
​
The BAND app is how our team will communicate. The team manager or head coach will send text announcements and reminders to both athletes and parents.
Click here to scan the QR code to establish your account and to learn more about BAND.
​
Once the athlete's parent/guardian completes steps 1 and 2 above, please immediately complete this step (but only if you don't currently have a BAND app account for Spike Up Athletics) so that you don't miss important EARLY communications. You'll also be able to check the app to get caught up on any previous information already communicated prior to you or your athlete registering.
​
For safety reasons, please do not allow athletes younger than 13 years old to create their own BAND account. We will monitor the BAND app to remove all users who are not 13 or older.
Step 4 - Athlete Uniform Order (Mandatory)
Competition and Travel Uniforms
​
See FAQ #8B and 8C for a breakdown of uniform costs.
Because Spike Up Athletics is a competitive track and field club, it's important that our athletes looks like a team and represents our club in the best light possible. As a result, we require two uniforms: (1) a competition uniform, and (2) a travel uniform. For both our fall/winter and summer outdoor season, the competition uniforms will be the same, and we will loan the athlete a competition uniform provided we have one available to loan. However, our travel uniforms will be different for each of our seasons due to seasonal temperature differences.
