REFUND POLICY
Fall Recreational Program
We understand that circumstances may change between registration in the Spring and the start of the soccer season in the Fall. Cancelations, relocation, injuries, change in schedule or interests are some examples. There are administrative costs that the organization incurs with registration and planning for the season (administrative, staff, insurance, equipment, etc.). Therefore, the refund amount is reduced the longer you wait to cancel your registration and apply for a refund.
This information is as follows:
REFUNDS FOR RECREATIONAL SOCCER ARE AS FOLLOWS:
- A full refund will be given if we receive a request in writing by September 1 of the upcoming season
- A 50% refund will be given if we receive a request in writing after September 1 and before October 1 of the upcoming season.
- No refund will be given after October 1 I understand and accept these terms
If the program is cancelled, and never started, a full refund will be given minus a $25 admin fee (per player).
If the program begins, and is cancelled at any time during the season, a prorated refund will be given based on the amount of time the program was active.
Why an admin fee? Staff members must be paid to prepare for the running of the programs throughout the year. In addition, league and insurance fees are paid for each player upon completion of their registration to participate in the program. The admin fee is to cover these costs and ensure no debt is created.
