Travel Team
*Rec does not run the Andover Boys or Girls Travel Teams*
If you plan on trying out for a travel team but want to hold a spot in the Andover Rec League, do not submit payment in full online. Instead, call the Rec Office to let us know that you would like us to save a spot in case your child does NOT make travel. This is the ONLY way you can hold a spot in the Andover Rec League without paying in full. Hold your spot prior to November 8th to receive the discounted rate.

Boys on travel teams are ineligible to participate in the Andover Rec League and you will be charged the cancellation fee to withdraw if your child makes the travel team and you pay in advance. New this year, girls on travel teams are eligible to participate in the Andover Rec League. Prior to November 8th, we will be able to refund your payment minus a 10% administrative fee or provide a credit in full to your Recreation account. Prior to November 15th, we will only be able to provide a credit. From November 15th on, refunds & credits will not be given.
