Financial Obligations_2016

Competitive Soccer Financial Obligations for the 2015-2016 Season
Financial Assistance
Basin United has established a process to provide financial assistance to players from low
income families who cannot afford the full cost of our Competitive program. Financial aid only
applies to the Club's Competitive Season fees. The maximum discount for these fees is 75%.
Families of competitive players receiving financial assistance will be 100% responsible for all
team, tournament, player card and uniform fees. Eligibility for financial assistance is based on
verified household income and the ability of the family to provide volunteer service. For more
information and for a financial aid application, please contact the Basin United office at 541273-1152.
Program Cost
Participation in the Competitive program requires a financial commitment which can be broken
down into the following categories:
 Season Fee - This seasonal fee covers the cost League play and a portion of the
administrative costs of the Club. The season fee also covers the cost of outdoor training fields
and lights, indoor training facility rental during season, field maintenance and the cost of
coaching for training sessions and games. Season fees are paid directly to the Club.
 Player Card Fee - this expense is tied directly to the costs Basin United incurs to register the
player with Oregon Youth Soccer. This is an Annual Fee that is required to be paid once per
seasonal year. This fee is paid directly to the Club.
 Uniform Fee – This fee is paid directly to the Club to purchase your player’s uniform kit.
The uniform kits come with two (2) jerseys, shorts, and two (2) pairs of socks. The uniforms
are on 2 year cycles, as long as the supplier still carry the model.
Commitment
ALL players/families within the Basin United Competitive Soccer Program agree to participate
for the entire season. Some teams will additionally participate in the Border League through the
CALNORTH League in Redding, CA. At a minimum, the player is required to participate in at
least two practices and games on the weekends. Families are expected to honor the commitment
they make to their coach and team as well as, their financial obligations. Families who do not
pay their fees in a timely fashion will be listed as players in poor standing with Basin United,
disallowing them from participating with any Club programs until fees are brought
current. Players may be benched until fees are paid. Additionally, all club and team payments
are to be paid in full even if players are unable to attend or participate due to injury or absence
for any reason unless otherwise agreed upon and approved by Basin United Soccer Club.
Volunteer Requirement
All Competitive players and their families are required to donate volunteer time with Basin
United Soccer Club. Each family is required to donate at least 8 hours per Competitive Player
each season. This volunteer time can be from working in the concession stand, helping with the
sunset showdown tournament, setting up and cleaning fields, or any other work donated to the
Club. We will have Volunteer Logs in the Field 5 Concession Stand and the Mike’s Fieldhouse
Office to log your time. IF a family does not meet their obligation or wishes to “buy-out” their
volunteer time, we calculate hours at the rate of $20 per hour.
