Release/Refund Policy

If the Rebel Soccer Club is unable to provide a team for the player, the parents will receive a full 100% refund. If a player registers, tries out, and is placed on a roster but later desires to leave the Rebels, two issues will need to be resolved.

Player Release
In accordance with existing MYSA rules, a player is bound to a club when they (or their parent/guardian if the player is a minor) sign a registration form and submits the RSC registration deposit fee. If a player submits registrations to multiple clubs (e.g., tries out with different teams), they are officially bound to the first club for which a registration form was signed and registration deposit fees were submitted. In order to be released from the RSC (allowing the player to join another club) the appropriate MYSA forms must be completed and signed by the RSC President and applicable Coach. The player may be released if:
1. The player is asking for release in order to play at a higher competitive level for another club (e.g. C1 for another club versus C2 for RSC).
2. The player’s family is physically moving residences to a location that makes playing for the RSC impossible due to distance.
3. The request for a player’s release would still leave a viable RSC team. A “viable” team is one which has at least:
     a) 14 players, for U13 and older
     b) 11 players, for U11 & U12
     c) 9 players, for U10 and younger If the player’s release under item 3 would leave fewer than the above number of players on the RSC roster, then the condition is not met. Multiple requests from the same team will be processed in order of the date of the request. If multiple requests from the same team are received on the same date, then they all must satisfy this requirement as a group.

Refund
No refund will be given if the release request is denied. If a player is released, they may be entitled to a partial refund of their registration fee on the following basis:
1. If the release request is made less than 2 weeks after the tryout results are posted, and it is granted then the refund will be the registration fee less $100.00.
2. If the release request is made and granted more than 2 weeks after the tryout results are posted, then the refund will be the registration fee less $150.00
3. If the release request is made more than 2 weeks after the tryout results are posted and that request is made after January 1, no refund will be granted.
Exceptions may be made, at the RSC Board’s discretion, for a player whose family physically moves its residence such that it makes playing for the RSC impossible due to distance.

Injury Refunds
Refunds requested because of a medically documented injury to a player will be subject to the RSC’s discretion.
