Failure to abide by this policy can result in loss of privileges.  The club has taken a zero tolerance on any abuse of our facility and staff.

Payment Policy

The St. Andrews Community Club accepts cash and cheque payments in person only for program registrations. Dates for payments are set seasonally. NSF cheques are subject to an additional fee of $35 and multiple NSF cheques will trigger a cash payment only option.

Registrants agree to pay all outstanding fees for sports, fitness and leisure activities prior to being enrolled and accepted into another program by the St. Andrews Community Club.

Club Fee (Membership Fee)

The club fee has changed to a per player per sport fee similar to the city, instead of the annual family fee. The fee is $60 per person for the winter season and $30 for summer-only sport participants. As long as you have a child participating in at least one sport during the year, your family will be a member of the club. The club fee will entitle your family to one vote per family at the Annual General Meeting and other special events that we only offer to members during the year or reduced fee rates to members. Club fee is only charge to sports lasting longer than 6 weeks per session.

Payment Options:

Cheque – you can drop off a cheque at the club Monday to Friday 8 am to 5 pm. Please put in the rec office door slot in the hall.
Credit Card – You can email staccregistration@shaw.ca to indicate that you would like to pay by credit card and an invoice will be sent to you. The invoice will include a convenience fee of 3%.
Cash, Cheque, Debit or Credit Card – will be accepted on payment nights.

Refund Policy

All Camps/Clinics are non refundable once registration is received even if payment is not received. Only exemption is with a medical note but only online credits will be given.

Requests for refunds (except for camps/clinics ) must be submitted by email to staccregistration@shaw.ca and not to the sport directors. For Hockey, Ringette, Soccer, Baseball and Skating all refund requests need to be received no later than 2 weeks before the start of the season or program as teams have been made and money is forwarded to sport associations so no refunds can be given. All refunds/unregistration are subject to a $20 administration fee. Once the registration is received you are considered registered even if no payment has been received yet.

Any requests for a refund after start of the season or program will be reviewed on an individual basis by the board of directors. Only online credits will be given and no cash refunds.

When applicable, the family membership/club fee and any fundraising fees will never be refundable after registered. Volunteer fees would be refunded along with the program fee less any charges.

Refunds for fitness or leisure classes that are not medical related, will be subject to a $20 processing fee to offset instructor costs. Individuals requesting the refund will be issued an on-line credit that can be used when registering for another sport, fitness or leisure class at the St. Andrews Community Club.
