Registration | Spike Up Athletics

The Complete Registration Process

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 #3 and FAQ #7.

Early bird registration ends September 10, 2022 @11:59 pm. Register prior to September 10, 2022 and save 20% off our standard registration fee.

Registration ends November 6, 2022 @11:59 pm. New athletes are those athletes who have never competed with Spike Up Athletics and are in need of a new uniform. If you are a new athlete, uniforms have to be ordered in November to allow plenty of time for delivery prior to our first winter meet. If you are a current athlete (an athlete who competed with Spike Up Athletics for either the Summer 2022 season or Winter 2021 season) and in need of a new uniform, your order will be submitted with the new athletes uniform order.

Step 2 - Athlete Medical Information

Athlete Medical Information

Click on the above Icon to submit the athlete's medical information.

Please submit this form at the same time you complete step 1.

Step 3 - Blast Athletics Account

Click here to learn more about Blast Athletics. Blast Athletics is how our team will communicate. The team manager or head coach will send text announcements and reminders to both athletes and parents.

Once the athlete's parent/guardian completes steps 1 and 2 above, the team manager or head coach will prompt the Blast Athletics app to email sign-up information to both the athlete and parent who registered the athlete. The athlete and his/her parent or guardian will need to monitor their junk/spam email folder to ensure they do not miss the email notification sent from the Blast Athletics app.

Competition Uniforms

Step 4 - Athlete Uniform Order (Mandatory)

Competition and Travel Uniforms

Within 48 hours of receiving the athlete's completed registration form (step 1) and completed medical form (step 2), Spike Up Athletics' administration will email the athlete and his or her parents information on how to order uniforms. Athletes will need both a competition uniform and a travel uniform & backpack. See FAQ #7 for a breakdown of competition and travel uniform costs.
