Instructions on how to register as either a team or an individual can be found on the league website, ACBAsoccer.com. Space is limited to eight teams, so teams new to the league are encouraged to reach out via the below email as soon as possible to confirm a spot. Cost is $75 per ACBA-member attorney or law clerk and $50 per law student, but teams may register with a sponsorship from a law firm to reduce or eliminate individual cost. Interested individuals who want to register will be assigned to a team. Rosters will be limited to a maximum of 15 players, including at least three women. At least two women per team must be on the field at all times. The regular season consists of 7-8 games (depending on league size), with playoffs beginning in late October. The league runs biannually, with a spring season occurring from roughly April through June. Games are played on Sundays from 8:45 to 11:45 a.m. at the Winchester Thurston Athletic Field in Shadyside. Please direct any questions to commissioner Josh Sallmen at jsallmen3@gmail.com.

Basketball

The ACBA runs a basketball league for lawyers who are members or associate members of the association. The league also permits law firm staff members to play on a team of attorneys. Teams will compete in one division with approximately 16 teams, made up of 10 players. The league tips off on Sunday, Jan. 7 and runs through March. Games will be played on Sunday and Monday nights at the JCC in Squirrel Hill. Each team is scheduled to play 7-8 regular season games and at least one playoff game.  Membership in the league is by team, but interested individuals will be placed on a team.  The cost per team is $1,200, which includes the regular season and playoff games.  Email Scott Scheinberg, League Commissioner, at sscheinberg@jonesday.com to reserve your team’s spot.  Registration is first come first served.
