  • Individual Entries/Relay fee: Cost of each individual event your swimmer races. Relay costs are divided by the 4 swimmers in the relay.
    • This is done to offset the cost of running a meet

 

  • Team Meet Fee: This is a per swimmer fee added by Tsunamis Swim Team. This fee helps cover the cost of sending a coach to a meet.
    • These fees differ by meet and can be found in the invitation.

**These fees maybe higher due to Covid and the restricted number of athletes and lack of spectators allowed on deck.

     **Meet fees must be paid by the first day of a meet to avoid a $5 late fee

*Fee is based on how many days in length of a meet, not how many you attend.  

• Individual and relay event fees vary meet to meet. Each family is responsible for their swimmers meet fees. 

If you decide not to attend a meet after entries have been submitted, you are still responsible for the meet fees since Tsunami          Swim Team is billed based on the entries. This applies even for illness or injury.

 

5. LATE FEES:  

Dues will be processed on the 1st of every month. Payments, IN FULL, must be received and posted to your account by the 7th of the month to avoid a $15 late fee.

  • If account goes more than 60 days past due, the swimmer(s) will be unable to practice until account has been brought up to date or a payment plan has been put into place. If you are on a payment plan, any meet fees that are due during that time must be paid in full. 

 

 

6. CREDIT CARDS PAYMENTS ACCEPTED:

All accounts must have a credit card and/or debit card on file for monthly dues/expenses.

7. LEAVE OF ABSENCE:   

Any Tsunami swimmers that decide to take a month (or more) off, with intention of returning to Tsunami Swim Team, may take a “Leave of Absence”. This leave needs to be communicated with your coaches before the 25th of the month prior to avoid being billed for the time you are gone.  

  • Once an invoice has been generated for the following month, because the coaching staff was not informed of the planned time off, the invoice must be paid regardless of the number of days the swimmer attended practice.
  • Tsunamis swim team will not give a refund for these fees nor will a credit be given towards a later month.
