CANCELATION, SUSPENSION, REFUND, INJURY &  PRORATE POLICIES:
 
Membership Cancelation or Suspension: Thirty (30) day written notice is required when withdrawing from THUNDERBIRD DIVING. Withdrawing from our club should take place on the 1st of the month to avoid additional issues with billing.
 
Vacations, Camps & Activities: Divers will pay FULL monthly tuition during vacations, camps, school functions or participating in multiple sports. No Exceptions.
 
INJURIES: Divers with an injury causing time away from pool will pay 50% of tuition each month. Team Fees will still be charged each quarter. Doctors note required to return to practice.
 
Monthly Tuition and Quarterly Team Fees: All Tuition & QTF will be directed towards Paying the Coaches, Pool Rental Fees and all coaches traveling expenses for events within the year. 
 
Prorates & Credits: We regret that we are unable to prorate or carryover tuition or annual fees billed for any classes. Once fees are billed, if an athlete cannot participate in their scheduled practices for that week or month, those fees are forfeited. Further, we do not offer additional practice time, make-up practices, credits for future weeks/months, or any other form of rebate or credit. 
 
Practice Cancelations: Tuition rates have been calculated based on the understanding that there will be practice cancelations due to inclement weather, coach vacations (2 weeks in December and 2 weeks in late August/September) and other unavoidable situations. We strive to keep practice cancelations to a bare minimum, but must still pay for coaches and facility use even when practice is canceled. The Air Force Academy can cancel at anytime with short notice. THUNDERBIRD DIVING will contact all coaches, athlete's and parents with an email at the time of cancelation.
