Finance Policy
Junior Boys and Girls Registration Finance Policy
Registration Fees
All fees must be paid at the time of registration. This will occur once a player has been offered a position in the squad after trials are complete. Registrations that are not accompanied by the appropriate fee will not be accepted and the position in the squad will be offered to another player. No player may play with the club until the appropriate age based registration fee has been paid. Registration payments will only be refunded as per the refund policy.
If planning a long-term holiday or unable to attend for an extended period, players/parents must advice the Coach or Team Manager prior to the start of the Season.
Payment types
Registration fees can be paid by, EFTPOS, EFT, business account cheque (no personal cheque) and MasterCard and Visa credit cards. American Express and Diners Club cards will not be accepted.
Hardship
In hardship cases the registrant should discuss their case with the Football Director before registration. Their case will be considered and appropriate arrangements will be agreed upon and put in place if deemed appropriate.
Family Discount
Families registering more than one child will receive a 10% discount for additional players registered with the club. Note, that the oldest child is considered the primary registration and pays the full amount. No other discounts will be given – for example, due to a player’s inability to attend the whole season.
Volunteer coaches
Volunteer primary coaches will receive a discount on fees paid for their child. The discount will be the full amount of registration for their one child. Assistant coaches’ children receive $150 discount on their child’s fees. The Operations Manager and/or the Football Director can review on a case by case basis.
Volunteer coaches are encouraged to attain a C class licence and the club will support the coach in that attainment by refunding one third of the coaching course payments at the end of each season over a three year period.
