REFUND POLICY

As a non-profit organization, we try to keep the fees as low as possible to ensure everyone has a chance to participate. We are forced to make decisions on equipment, uniforms, league fees, tournaments, paid coaching commitments and general operating costs months before the season starts to ensure we are prepared for the season. Because we must make these decisions and incur expenditures so far in advance SALA has adopted a no-refund policy with regards to all registration fees. There will be no exceptions to the following rules beyond the exceptions listed below.

The only exceptions to this policy would be:

  1. If a participant decides to drop from the program prior to the start of the first clinic (full registration refund minus administrative $25 non-refundable deposit).
  2. If a participant decides to drop from the program during the clinic season but prior to tryouts (50% refunded registration fee minus a $25 administrative non-refundable deposit & $80 uniform fee).
  3. In the event that the child was medically unable to participate. A note from a doctor on letterhead indicating that the participant cannot participate is required.
    1. If a parent has requested a refund due to medical reasons prior to the start of the try-out process they will receive a full registration refund minus a $25 administrative non-refundable deposit & $80 uniform fee.
    2. If a child has participated in a practice, but has not participated in any games, they can receive a 50% medical refund.
    3. No refunds will be issued after season game play has commenced.

 

There will be no refunds issued in the following situations:

  1. If tryouts have begun, there will be no refund.
  2. If after tryouts a participant is pulled onto a high school team (9th grade, JV, or Varsity), there will be no refund or fee offset.
  3. If a participant is injured during season game play and cannot finish the season, there will be no refund.

We appreciate your understanding of this policy.

 

**The SALA Board reserves the right to waive this refund policy at its sole discretion at any time. All requests for refunds must be presented in writing to stillwaterlacrosse@gmail.com. Such a waiver shall generally be in response to extenuating or highly unusual circumstances, and in no event shall the Board be obligated to waive this refund policy. There will be no exception to the $25 administrative non-refundable deposit & $80 uniform fee deduction from any refund.


SALA Level Up and Down Policy

The SALA Board of Directors members have received numerous questions and comments over the years regarding the possibility of exceptionally-skilled players "moving" up to play with teams above their designated age brackets.  In years past, this may or may not have been allowed due to circumstance.  However, in the interest of fairness and transparency for all players in the SALA program, the Board has decided to implement a policy regarding this practice so that the expectations are clear for all involved.

We would like to hear from our families regarding the proposed policy, which is included below for your reference; whether you agree with the policy or oppose the policy as written, please respond to the Board of Directors with your comments.  Detailed feedback is critical on both sides, whether you agree or disagree with the policy, explain why you feel that way and propose alternatives.  

With evaluations coming up this weekend, we will look to finalize the policy by the end of the week, so please respond as soon as possible.  If we don't hear from you, we won't be able to make an informed decision that benefits all of SALA, so let us know what you think.  Please forward your thoughts and comments to Adam Hennen at ahennen@otcpas.com.  Thank you for your feedback and continued partnership.
