Team Tuition plus Meet Stipend is due the first practice of each month. If tuition is not paid by the 10th of the month a $10
late fee will be assessed and your card will automatically be drafted. At this time team tuition may be paid by cash, check,
automatic bill pay, and credit or debit card. All team families are required to have a current credit card on file and your
signature below authorizes the Front Desk to draft payment from that card if it has not been received by the 10 th of the month.
Team Tuition is calculated for each team group based on scheduled practice hours per week times a 48-week year. This means
that the gym may/will cancel up to 4 weeks of every groups’ practice each year before any tuition refunds are issued.
Cancelled practices are tracked by the Owners. Practice missed due to athlete absence for any reason is not eligible for refund
or suspension of payment.
Team Families are expected to commit fully to the 2015/2016 Competitive Season. Accepting an Invitation to a Team Training
Group tells the Gym that you agree to participation in and payment for all expenses associated with that group assignment
from May 2015 through April 2016. Be advised that should you allow your child to quit the Team for any reason prior to the
completed competition cycle (May 2015 through April 2016) you will still be responsible IN FULL for their tuition as well as
their monthly meet stipend for the remainder of the cycle. The only exception to this will be at the discretion of the Program
Director in the event that your family (including the gymnast in question) are moving to a location that the Program Director
acknowledges is too distant to reasonably attend practice. In this event a minimum of 30 days’ notice of the move must be
given in order to approve and process suspension of tuition billing.
If your child is injured either at practice or outside the Gym, we expect them to return to practice as soon as possible and
workout within reasonable restrictions imposed by the injury. Injury does not constitute an acceptable reason to cease payment
or quit Competitive Team before the end of the Competitive Cycle (April 30, 2016).
Competitive Team is by invitation only and the Gym reserves the right to rescind that invitation at any time. In this case no
refund will be issued for expenses already paid to the Gym.
The monthly meet stipend is mandatory and must be paid on a monthly basis along with tuition and is subject to the same due
dates, late fee and automatic late draft policy as regular tuition. This stipend covers athlete registration and coaching
fees/expenses associated with scheduled meets. Neither monthly tuition nor the meet stipend covers Regional Meet Expenses,
Apparel, Choreography, USAG or NC USAG athlete membership fees. Monthly meet stipend is non-refundable.
All gymnasts are expected to regularly attend scheduled practices and compete in all scheduled meets. If in either the Coach’s
or Program Director’s opinion any team member is unable to safely perform the skills required for their assigned level before
any scheduled meet they may be scratched from any or all events. No meet expenses are able to be refunded due to scratches
or injury.
The practice schedule for any training group is subject to change. While we do not anticipate any changes to the published
schedule, we do assume that Gymnastics is the primary sport of our Competitive Team Members and that any unforeseen
changes will be cooperated with by our Team Families.
No spectators are allowed into the gym at any time without invitation from a staff member. The Manager’s Office is
NOT an observation area.
Athletes should not be left unsupervised at the gym for more than 15 minutes before or after practice. Siblings should not be
left unattended on the premises at any time.
Under no circumstances should a parent or other spectator approach a judge before, during or after a meet or enter the
competition area without specific request from a Coach representing Crystal Coast Gymnastics or a Meet Official.
All team members must purchase a team uniform and maintain current USAG athlete membership appropriate to their level.
All team members are automatically enrolled in the Booster Club. There are separate fees for this organization that are
assessed by the Booster Club, not the Gym.
I have read, understand and accept to the Team Policies stipulated above.
