Home MenuHow To Register
All customers must establish an account in order to register for classes and programs. You may establish an account by visiting torrance.rec.us.
Note: during the transition from RecTrac to torrance.rec.us:
If you have previously verified your residency with that City of Torrance, we will make every effort to transfer your residency status once you set up an account on rec.us
To make sure you are ready for summer registration, we highly recommend you create an account 3-5 days before registration day, and verify that your status has transferred by following the steps below:
-
Create an account
-
Check your profile page for a residency badge
-
If you do not see your residency badge, reach out to support@rec.us
At any point in time, The City of Torrance may request that you reverify your residency status. If you cannot reverify your residency, The City of Torrance reserves the right to remove you from programming that was signed up for under the pretense of being a resident.
For households requested to reverify:
You may email your Torrance Proof of Residency to us at Enroll@TorranceCA.Gov. As a new customer, you will be allowed to register as a non-resident until proof of Torrance residency has been received and verified, however, your household will be charged the non-resident rates, which are non-refundable.
