Church Affiliation​

There are three churches (Tallowood, Chapelwood, and MDPC) that register players for Tallowood Kingdom Basketball. Each church has a separate website and registration system. Accordingly, all players on a team must register through the same church.

 

Importantly, a registered player desiring to change church affiliation will need to withdraw (at a penalty, per the refund policy) and then re-register through one of the other churches.

 

If you have any doubt about church affiliation, please confirm in advance that all preferred teammates plan to register through the same church.

 

Registration Process

• The registration link provided below is for Tallowood teams only.
