It’s cold outside – can I wear a sweatshirt / jacket / pullover / zip up over my uniform?
Since the SSC is a uniformed league, all sweatshirts/jackets must be worn under your uniform. The uniform must be in clear view in order to play (even zip ups that are just over the shoulders will not be permitted unless they are underneath the SSC uniform.
I forgot my uniform at home (or picked the wrong uniform). Can I play?
The SSC is a uniformed league, so all players must be in the current season’s shirt to participate. Without one, you must switch out jerseys with a teammate when you are on the field of play. You will be roster-checked to ensure you are on the team (for liability purposes).
How do payments work?
Captains
Captains can choose to take care of the full team balance and manually collect money from their teammates, or only pay a deposit and have players pay their share of the team balance through TeamPayer.
NOTE: The card used for the deposit will NOT be charged again by LoneStar SSC unless there is a remaining balance after T-Shirt Pickup.
Individuals
A credit card is needed to complete your registration. All individuals are subject to a $1.95 conveneince fee. NO REFUNDS are offered for any reason other than if we are unable to place you on a team.
What if I know I’m going to have to miss a game or two during the season, can I still participate?
Yes, just be sure to inform your teammates.
Can I still sign up if it says sold out?
You can e-mail info@lonestarssc.com to be added to the waitlist. On occasion, a team or individual will back-out or request transfer to another night.
Can I play two sports at once?
You can play as many sports at once as you would like, provided you are not on two different teams in the same sport on the same night. However, you could play the same sport on two different nights (ex. Tuesday & Thursday kickball).
How do I find out when a new league opens?
Receive a weekly update on all of our upcoming sports and events by adding your e-mail address to our email newsletter. Click here to add your name.
The deadline to register has passed. Can I add another player?
Yes if we have SSC uniforms in inventory. If so, you have up to the third week to add players. E-mail info@lonestarssc.com with an add-on request. The additional player cost would still be due when the shirt is received, and that player must sign the team waiver before they will be allowed to play.
Can I request a specific color for our uniforms?
Yes, full teams are asked for their top three choices when signing up but there is no guarantee that a uniform request will be granted (priority for colors are based on a first come first serve basis).
How does the waitlist work and how do I improve my chances of being placed?
Individuals are placed based on registration date (earlier sign ups are placed first), and those with co-ed teammate requests. If you are unable to sign up please email info@lonestarssc.com and we can add you to the league waitlist.
If you are waitlisted and we are unable to complete the formation of an additional team after the deadline, you will be given the options to transfer to another sport with priority registration.
If I sign up as an individual, am I guaranteed placement?
Usually we have enough room for everyone if you sign up on time. Since we are unable to determine the number of males & females to sign up for a particular sport until after registration ends, we cannot predict if everyone will be placed. If you are not placed initially then you will be put on a wait list.
When do I find out what team I’m on?
You will receive an email 2-3 days before the posted happy hour date. You can also view your roster in League Lab.
How do I message my team?
You can message your team through your league dashboard in League Lab.
What is your refund policy?
Since we use a third party for online registrations, we are unable to process any refunds after payment has been made. If you are no longer able to play the sport, and inform us via e-mail of this (info@lonestarssc.com) prior to the registration deadline, then you will be able to hold that credit for any future SSC event of equal value for the remainder of that calendar year. Once the registration deadline has passed, there are no credits. If you are unable to play after the registration deadline has passed (but before the season begins), you would need to find someone to take your place, and that player can compensate you for the spot and take your shirt.
How do I sign up?
From the sanantoniossc.com menu, go to a sports registration page and scroll down to the sport you would like to play. There is a registration link in each listed item that will take you to our partner site (League Lab) to start the registration and payment process.

Should a player’s shirt become lost, torn, damages, or unwearable, the cost to replace it will be $10.
Orders must be sent 48 hours prior to the sport night.
Late addition shirt size is not guaranteed due to limited inventory. We will work to send out the closest size available.
To receive your shirt please check in with the onsite coordinator upon arrival at your game. Players will have to show proof of purchase via emailed receipt in order to get their shirt.
In the case of a new player addition, the player must be added to the online roster.
