The fees can range from less than $200/year to over $2000/year. PreSeason Team Camp will start on Saturday, July 30 and continue through Sunday, August 7, 2016. This camp is mandatory. Regularly scheduled team practices will begin on Monday, August 8.
PAYMENT SCHEDULE: First payment is required upon signing of the Commitment Form and the completion of Registration into the program. This fee is $150 must be paid by credit card, and is NonRefundable (this fee does apply to your child’s annual registration fee for the club). Payment plans will be available. There is a $25 service fee for implementing the payment plan option. Payment plans: Credit Card payment will automatically withdraw from your bank account. Individual monthly statements will not be mailed out, therefore all monthly payments are the responsibility of the player’s family. There will be a late fee of $15.00 charged after the 15th of each month if your draft is declined or payment has not been received. Failure to pay your fees within thirty (30) days of the fee payment due date, for both Registration Fees and Team Fees, will result in the revocation of the player’s pass by the Club Registrar and will be held by The Florida Elite Soccer Academy until past due payment is received. At that point, players will be ineligible to participate in any and all team practices, camps, games and tournaments until payment is received. The Florida Elite Soccer Academy does realize that emergencies may result in a financial strain on the family and in order to keep the player from becoming ineligible, the Club will work with a family. Please contact the club administrator immediately or with any questions, in the event of such emergencies. ●
NOTE: No Registration fee payment or parts thereof will be refunded or forgiven because of player absence(s), withdraws, or release from team or club.
