Our recreational classes run in sessions and change every winter, spring, summer, and fall. Our spring recreational schedule will begin March 29th. The spring session will run through the end of June. All athletes need to re-enroll at the beginning of each session.

Please go to our Forms page and print our Recreational Class Enrollment Packet for New Members. This packet includes our class schedule, enrollment forms and Recreational Parent Guide and will also give you more information about our program, policies and procedures. Please take a moment to review this attachment. It is very important to review so you and your athlete/parents understand our class policies, class make-up procedure, notice of stopping a class and billing policies and procedures. If your athlete joins a class you will sign off on our Financial Agreement form that you have read our Parent Guide and agree to our policies and procedures.

Athletes can join or switch to a different recreational class at any time as long as space is available. Athletes do not need to wait for the beginning of a new session or the beginning of a new month. A class is allowed a maximum of 8 athletes. Classes can fill up quickly and class enrollment can change daily. Turning in your enrollment forms as soon as possible will ensure your spot in a class. Once a class is full, a waitlist is created on a first come, first serve basis.

DISCONTINUING A CLASS POLICY

If for any reason your athlete decides to stop attending a class you must provide a 30 day written notice by completing a Class Drop form. Not attending class or telling the coach does not automatically drop you from a class. If a Class Drop form is not received you will continue to be responsible and billed for all tuition and late fees until a Class Drop form is received. No refunds or credits will be given. Completing the Class Drop form is the only acceptable way to cancel a class and it must be received prior to the 1st of the month. Once the billing has been processed on the 1st of the month, no refunds or credits will be issued, even if your athlete did not attend the class.
