Refund Policy
Within the First Three Weeks of Practice Season
Any requests for refunds made within the first three weeks of the Schenectady Saratoga Swim Club practice season (or swimmer/s first three weeks on the team) will be honored as the first three weeks is considered a trial period.
USA Swimming Registration Fees
The USA Swimming fees cannot be refunded by the team.
Meet Fees
Once a swimmer has been entered in a meet, the meet fees are due and no refunds can be made. The Club has a responsibility to pay those meet fees to the host club on a timely basis.
After the First Three Weeks of Practice Season
Schenectady Saratoga Swim Club has found it necessary to establish a firm NO REFUND POLICY concerning annual swimming dues and registration fees for swimmers who have registered with our club and have requested a refund after the first three (3) weeks of their squad's practice season. Our financial commitments involve annual contracts based on swimmer registrations. The Sharks are obligated to fulfill these contracts regardless of the number of swimmers we have in the water at any time. We understand many of our swimmers will experience, at some time during the season, illness, over-commitment, decreased interest or problems that may take them out of the water. While we regret these problems, NO REFUND OF REGISTRATION FEE AND/OR FEES can be made for swimmers who are out of the water.
If a swimmer is injured and/or under a doctor’s care that prohibits attending practice (after the three-week trail), the board of directors will determine a pro-rated amount to be refunded.
