When does my family need to pay PAA dues?

PAA dues must be paid during the first sports season of the year (starting with winter sports) that a player participates. The dues are paid once per family per year.  

Ex. If Player A played basketball and paid PAA dues and then registers to play baseball they DO NOT pay the PAA dues again for baseball.
Ex. If Player B cheers for the winter season and paid PAA dues and then Player B's sibling registers to play baseball they DO NOT pay the PAA dues again for baseball.
Ex. If Player C played softball in the fall and paid PAA dues and then Player C's sibling registers to play basketball, this family WOULD need to pay the PAA dues for basketball. 
Ex. If Player D played softball in the fall and paid PAA dues and then registers to play softball in the spring, this family WOULD need to pay the PAA dues for spring softball, but would not need to pay again if she registers for softball again in the fall. 

For additional information, please contact our PAA president at [email protected] or any of our sports directors.
