- If at least 2 games are started no refund is provided.
- If at least 1 game is started a 50% refund is given.
- If no games are started a 65% refund is given.
- If governmental agencies shutdown our ability to play due to COVID, credits for future play or refunds will be extended at our discretion.
- In the case where teams are due a refund but are registered and unpaid for future events that refund shall be applied to the balance due on those future events.
- We reserve the right to adjust this policy at any time to accommodate unusual circumstances.
