LEAVE OF ABSENCE/SUSPENTION:

If you plan take time off from the team, there are two ways to do so, LEAVE OF ABSENCE or SUSPENSION. This form must be completed and delivered by the 25th of the month prior to the month in which the leave of absence or suspension is to begin. For example, a Leave of Absence request to play soccer in September should be delivered no later than August 25th to avoid being charged for September.

  • A LEAVE OF ABSENCE is for a maximum of three months and carries a monthly fee of $35 per swimmer plus the fundraising fee (if applicable). This fee holds your swimmer’s or swimmers’ spot(s) on the roster.
  • A SUSPENSION carries no monthly fee and does not hold a spot on the roster. A swimmer returning within 12 months of account suspension will incur a $85 fee, plus any applicable fundraising fees.
  • Depending on the timing and duration of the Leave of Absence or Suspension, the annual USA Swimming fee also may need to be paid upon returning to the club.
