Club Fees
2026-2027 Full Year
Our club fee now includes the costs that were traditionally collected as separate team fees, simplifying the overall payment process for families.
Previously, team fees varied by team and were based on expenses such as tournament entry fees, travel, and other costs associated with each team’s level of play. These fees have now been factored into the club fees.
