Teams

Pick your son's grad year.

Carolina Miners fields one travel team per grad year as our starting point. When numbers and level of play support a second team within a grad year, we field it — at a lower price point and a lighter time commitment. Same staff, same standard. Two paths: Full-Year (Fall + Winter + Spring + Summer) or the Fall + Summer bundle for the two core competitive seasons.

Final roster picture is communicated after tryouts close. Whether a grad year fields one team or two depends on how many players try out and roster cleanly at the level we expect.

Payment

Three ways to pay.

Same program, same coaches, same standard — pick the plan that fits your family's budget. Final tuition is locked in writing before your son accepts a roster spot, never after.

Pay in Full · Save 5%

One charge at acceptance

5% off the base tuition — the biggest savings we offer. Locks in the roster spot immediately. Available on both Full-Year and Fall + Summer.

6-Month · Standard

20% deposit + 6 monthly

20% deposit at acceptance, then six monthly payments on the balance. Auto-pay via LeagueApps. Available on both Full-Year and Fall + Summer.

12-Month · Lowest monthly

30% deposit + 12 monthly

30% deposit at acceptance, then twelve monthly payments on the balance. Small financing premium. Offered on Full-Year only.

Policies

The fine print, plainly.

Injury credit

If a player is medically cleared out of the season, remaining tuition is applied as a credit toward a future Miners season. We don't profit from your son's injury.

Non-refundable

Program is non-refundable. Even payment plans. Deposits and any payments already made are non-refundable. If a player decides to leave, no refund is issued.

Roster movement

If a grad year fields more than one team, players are evaluated continuously across rosters during the season — same staff, same standard, real movement.

Player Kit

Player Kit NOT included — Fall 2026–Summer 2027 kit rolls into this season (2-year cycle). New players purchase the kit separately.

Between the Core Seasons

Winter & Spring training — included in Full-Year.

Winter and Spring training run between the Fall and Summer travel seasons. Both are included when you choose the Full-Year program. If you'd prefer to skip them, choose the Fall + Summer bundle instead — same team, same coaches.

Winter

Winter Training

~10–12 sessions of positional training and speed work at Huntersville-area venues. Multi-sport athletes attend what fits around basketball, hockey, or wrestling — no penalty for missing.

Spring

Spring Training

~6 sessions of skill work that runs around the high-school and middle-school spring season. Sharpens what he's already doing — school ball comes first.

Roster spots start at tryouts.
