Requesting a Refund
Refunds will only be granted once a written application has been received and reviewed by the Executive Committee.
If the request is approved, the following refund schedule applies:
| Date Received | Refund Amount |
|---|---|
| Up to September | 90% |
| During October | 70% |
| During November | 50% |
| During December | 30% |
| After December 31 | No refund |
Transfers to Other Associations
After the first practice, if a player leaves to play with another OWHA association, no refund will be issued.
This is considered breaking a registration agreement with the Port Colborne Girls Hockey Association (PCGHA).
Residential Relocation
Players who move out of the area before the end of the season may apply in writing for a refund.
The refund amount will follow the schedule above, based on the date the written request is received.
Medical Withdrawal
If a player becomes medically unfit or sustains an injury preventing participation for the remainder of the season, a refund may be granted based on the above percentages.
The refund amount will be determined by the date of injury or diagnosis and must be supported by a medical note from a licensed physician.
Suspension or Expulsion
Players who are suspended or expelled from the Association are not entitled to a refund under any circumstances.
