Annual membership fees cover a portion of the expenses incurred for pool space rental, coaching fees and costs related to equipment acquisition/replacement. The remaining costs are subsidized by club funds.
Registration occurs in August, September, October (Recreational), January (Recreational) or May (Spring Sync). The first month’s fees are non-refundable due to administration fees, opportunity costs, carry costs, and contractual obligations. If applicable, an additional fee for extra routines (solos, duets, combo or special cases) will be collected for the extra pool and coaching time required for these optional activities. The annual fee is subject to swimmer registration, pool fees and other expenses. Fundraising helps to keep the annual fee accessible to more families.
Any withdrawal from the club or request to change to a swimmer’s program, with cause, must be formally submitted in writing to the Executive 30 days prior to the effective date. A penalty for the withdrawal or change will be pro-rated based on age level and the point in the swimming year up to January 1st, after which there will be no refund (due to financial commitments made to coaches, pool contracts and competition expenses).
Alberta Artistic Swimming/Canada Artistic Swimming registration fees are non-refundable after the club has submitted them.
