Refund Policy

Except for cancellations by the District, all refunds are subject to a 10% processing fee. In the event the District cancels an activity, makeup classes may be offered or, if no make-up classes are offered, a credit to your account or a refund will be issued. Limitations on refunds may vary by activity and registration type.

Programs, Athletics and Camps

This section applies to all youth and adult programs, athletics, and camps (collectively or individually referred to as “program(s)”). This section does not apply to travel programs, pre-school programs, or special events.

A refund, minus the 10% processing fee, will be given if a withdrawal request is made 8 days or more prior to the start of the program.

No refund will be given if the registrant submits a withdrawal request 7 days or less prior to the start of the program except for medical reasons. A prorated refund may be issued if the participant withdraws for medical reasons. Medical refunds require a signed doctor’s note explaining the injury or illness and must be submitted within 10 business days of when the participant first misses the program due to the injury or illness. In the event the District cancels the program, the District may either offer makeup classes or, if no make-up classes are offered, the District will either issue a credit to the registrant’s account or a full refund.

For the Get Better League: 1) a full refund will be issued if the registrant withdraws before teams are assigned; 2) the registrant will be issued a 50% refund if the participant withdraws after teams have been assigned; and 3) no refund will be issued if the participant withdraws after the teams have been assigned and had their first practice.
