In addition to monthly Training Fees, ALL swimmers are responsible for the 1 time yearly Registration Fees that are listed below:
New Swimmers:
Team Registration Fee: $100 + USA Swimming Registration: $69
Returning Swimmers:
Team Registration Fee: $70 + USA Swimming Registration: $69
IMPORTANT PAYMENT POLICIES:
The fee schedule is based on 1 year of operation. Although Cardinal Aquatics does not train 12 months per year, it requires 12 months of work to keep the team running smoothly.
The schedule above is based on a total of nine payments covering the cost of the entire 12-month year. The year begins September 1, 2010 and ends August 31, 2011.
The nine payments begin in September and end in May. Thus, you are not responsible for coaching fees in June, July, or August (only paying for meet entry fees). Invoices are sent via email. They are sent at the end of the month, billing for the next month...(example: invoice sent Aug. 27th for Sept. training fees)
Once you have been registered for the team you are responsible for a season’s fees regardless of participation. The yearly fee is broken into 9 payments for your convenience only. There is no month to month participation. However, if you desire to leave the team during the year for any reason, 30 days written notice is required to gain relief from further obligation of team fees. If given proper notice of departure you may return to the team at a later date without penalty provided slots are still available.
If you pay for the year in full postmarked by September 10, 2010 you will receive a 10% discount.
If you pay for the year in two installments you will receive a 5% discount. The first payment postmarked by September 10, 2010. The second payment postmarked by January 10, 2011.
If you choose to pay in nine payments, the payment structure is outlined in the chart above. All accounts will be closed out on the 10th of each month.
After your initial registration, your personal online account through our secure website will be setup, and detailed instructions will be emailed to you. We STRONGLY encourage the use of Electronic Payment (close to 90% of payments are already being made online). An additional $10.00 administrative fee will be incurred for check payments.
All late payments will incur a $25.00 late fee.
The $100 registration fee (includes three team shirts) and USS registration fee are not a part of your training fees – it is an annual fee for each swimmer. Returning swimmers have a $70 registration fee which will not include shirts.
Your registration fee, USS fee, and first coaching fee payment is due postmarked by September 10, 2010.
Siblings will receive discount. Second and third siblings will receive $20 off their training fee, fourth child is free!! Exception of the Stroke School!
