In order to participate in any Aggieland Homeschool Athletics (AHA) sport, you must become a member of AHA. Membership requirements are outlined in Article III of the AHA Bylaws. Membership is only granted to homeschool families who agree with the organization's Statement on Gender, Family, and Sexuality. Voting rights in this member-run organization are granted to members who agree with the organization's Statement of Faith. When you register for a sport, the registration form will ask if you agree with these statements of belief. 

ALL PLAYERS must meet certain eligibility requirements or our program may be disqualified from post-season tournaments. To see if you are eligible to play Aggieland Homeschool Athletics Basketball, please view the Eligibility Rules set forth by the National Christian Homeschool Championship organization.

They are included on the Registration Form, and you will be asked to sign each one stating that you agree to abide by them. To save you time when filling out the form, it is recommended that you read these prior to starting the form.

Our desire is to trust the Lord so that we can give homeschooled youth an opportunity to play Panther Basketball without placing a significant financial burden on any family. Therefore, we are keeping our fees low and encouraging program-wide fundraising to cover the rest of the expenses. See the following chart for the 2024-2025 season player fees (based on age of player, not team placement).

• The registration deposit is refundable if player drops out before September 15. 
• Our Fundraising Committee will inform you of opportunities to raise funds to help with your player fee that is due no later than November 1. 
• Players who have not paid their fees by November 1 will not be allowed to practice or play in games until all fees are paid (see Article III.9 of AHA Bylaws).
• These fees help with program expenses such as coaches, gym rentals, referees, tournament entry fees, insurance, and equipment.
• The AHA-B program expenses are estimated to be approximately $110,000 this year. Registration and Player Fees bring in approximately $30,000. Your help will be needed to find corporate sponsors and do other program-wide fundraising to cover the rest of the expenses. 

UNIFORMS: An additional uniform fee (actual cost of the uniform) may be required from each player in October according to team needs with a goal of getting at least two years of use. AHA-B will purchase the uniforms on your behalf, but you will be required to pay the program for the uniform before receiving it. (Uniforms for younger teams typically cost around $90; for high school teams it's around $150.) Once you've paid for the uniform, it is yours to keep and maintain. If the uniform is lost or damaged, you will be responsible for paying to replace it. If your player outgrows the uniform, moves up to a team with a different uniform, or leaves the program, you are encouraged to sell the uniform to another player in the program who could use it.

TRAVEL EXPENSES: Families are responsible for all of your travel expenses. We often travel to games and tournaments within a 2-hour radius of Bryan/College Station. Some tournaments are multiple days and may require overnight stays.
