Dolphin Swim Club

Terms and Conditions for Participation – 2005/2006 Short Course Season

 

I/we agree to the following terms and payment conditions in order for my/our child/children to participate on the Grand Junction Dolphin Swim Team.  The terms are as follows:

 

1.        The yearly United States Swimming (USS) and any yearly club registration fee are non-refundable and must be paid prior to the swimmer entering the water.  New swimmers to the Dolphins may participate for one week prior to payment.

 

2.        If you choose to pay a monthly fee, the fee is due on the first (1st) of the month, and late on the fifth (5th). Late payments are subject to a $10.00 surcharge.  Non-payment of monthly fees past the 5th of each month will necessitate non-participation for the swimmer until payment is made.

 

When a swimmer is moved from one group to another, the monthly fee or balance of a pro-rated session fee changes to the highest group in which he/she is participating.  When joining the Dolphins mid-month, dues will be pro-rated. 

 

3.        Meet entry fees are in addition to monthly or session fees.  Nonpayment of entry fees will also necessitate non-participation for the swimmer(s) until payment is made.  A swimmer's meet entry will NOT be completed without paid entry fees, and the swimmer will not be permitted to swim at the meet unless the host team accepts late entry and payment directly from the swimmer.  Meet entries will not be accepted unless dues are current.

 

4.        All outstanding fees from prior sessions must be paid in full before registration for the next session. Full session fees, or the first month's dues are payable with the signing of this contract before your swimmer may enter the water. 

 

5.        Credit is not issued for missed practice time.

 

6.        Should a swimmer decide to discontinue participation in the program with the Dolphins, all outstanding entry fees, administrative, or other fees are considered an obligation to the Dolphin Swim Club, and are payable upon termination.

 

7.        The Dolphins may have various fundraisers throughout the year.  Fundraising is essential to the health of the team. The Board of Directors reserves the right to make fundraising a mandatory obligation, as needed. Some fundraising efforts will allow a credit to your swimmer's personal account, as announced prior to the effort.

 

8.        Each Dolphin family is needed for work at our swim meets.  Please volunteer.  Meets and fundraisers are essential to the health of our team and to keep dues affordable.

 

9.        Any checks returned to the Dolphin Swim Club for non-sufficient funds will be subject to a $25.00 additional charge.

 

10.     If fees are not paid to the Dolphin Swim Club in a timely manner, the delinquent account may be liable for all collection costs, attorney's fees, and the $10.00 per month late charge from the date the account first becomes delinquent.

 

Swimmers cannot participate with Dolphins until the terms and conditions are signed and this agreement has been returned to team manager or head coach.
