Registration Payment Method The preferred and most convenient method is our online payment system. This allows for an automated reconciliation of funds and provides our members with the ability to track their payments online. We also accept cash or checks for payment. Checks are made payable to: Rangers Soccer Club and can be mailed directly to: Rangers Soccer Club c/o Treasurer 374 East H. Street, Suite A, PMB 441 Chula Vista, CA 91911. You MUST include the following information: •
Your child’s first and last name
•
Age bracket
•
Coach’s name.
It is your responsibility to pay on time. We are doing our best to continue to offer the best program in the South Bay at the same cost or less than previous years. Therefore if your account is late, your child (children) WILL BECOME INELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE IN PRACTICES AND GAMES. A $25 processing fee will be added to your account for each non-sufficient fund check, and a $25 late fee will be added for payments that are late 10 days or more. In the event there is a discrepancy with your payment history, you will need to provide proof of payment. It is important to receive a receipt with your payment, especially cash transactions. Your cleared check is an acceptable proof of payment. Retain all receipts until the 2017-2018 season ends. Page 3 of 5

Coaching Fees Player fees are comprised of registration fees and coaching fees. Coaching fees serve to compensate the coaches for their time and expenses. Coaching fees are paid monthly directly to the coaches and typically range from $25 - $40. Please contact the team’s coach to get more information.
Tournament Costs Teams often elect to play tournaments before and after the fall season. All costs associated with tournaments are covered separately by the team. The club will have one mandatory tournament that each team must play. The cost for that tournament will be approximately $40 - $50 per player. Any tournament costs may be offset by fundraising or other means that can be discussed with the Board. Apart from the mandatory tournament, the team—along with their coach—will be free to choose which other tournaments it would like to participate in during the year. Each player is required to pay for all tournaments the team has decided to participate in during the season, even if the player may miss a tournament.
Refund Policy Competitive club soccer is an 8-10 month commitment. Our refund policy was established to protect team integrity. In the interest of fairness, the additional cost of leaving a team should not be passed on to the other players. With this in mind, the Rangers Soccer Club has a limited refund policy. The initial registration fee paid at registration is non-refundable. In the event your child decides she/he does not want to play for the Rangers Soccer Club, the refundable portion of the club fees paid will be as follows: •
A 75% refund of remaining balance if the request is received before July 1st;
•
A 50% refund of remaining balance if the request is received after July 1st and before August 1st;

ALL refunds are subject to a $25 processing fee.

Player Card: You will receive a player card when your registration is paid in full or your account is current with an applicable payment plan in place. Your account must continue to be in good standing for the duration of the agreed to payment plan. Otherwise the card will be withdrawn at the discretion of the club thereby making the player ineligible for all practices and games. If a player decides to leave the Rangers Soccer Club, the player’s name, balance due, and payment related information will be reported to CalSouth. In signing this agreement, I understand and promise to pay all fees in full in order for my child to play with his/her team. If my account is delinquent, I understand my child will not be allowed to practice or play with the team until the account is paid to current or paid in full. ____________________________________ Player Name, Age bracket
