Refund Policy

Lacombe Minor Hockey Association Refunds

Players who withdraw from Lacombe Minor Hockey may be eligible for a refund. All requests for
refunds must be in writing to the Treasurer and the President of Lacombe Minor Hockey. Refund
requests for withdrawals must be done prior to January 15th

? Prior to September 1, refund requests are eligible for 100% of paid registration fee paid,
less the $50 administration fee per registrant.

? After September 1, players leaving LMHA will forfeit an admin fee of $150 plus any
additional costs incurred (socks, photos, HA/HC fees). Depending on when they leave
during the evaluation/season the fees will be adjusted. The refund will be prorated based
on a 6 month season.

? Refund requests based on a league suspension, or any other disciplinary action will not
be considered. Refunds will be issued in the form of initial payment made, and requests
for cash will NOT be considered.

? If a registration fee was whole or in partial payment by any financial assistance program
(such as KidSport, JumpStart, Hockey Canada Assist Fund, etc.), a refund will not be
issued to the registrant directly. Refunds through the RAMP website will be charged a
3% admin fee and there is no refund for any credit card admin fee

? In the event the registrant has immediate family from the same household registered and
not paid, the balance will transfer to remaining registrants

? For unforeseen events that may occur after registration that would have a significant
impact on the season’s operations, the LMHA Executive Board will calculate the fixed
costs of operations and prorate fees appropriately. Unforeseen events are defined as
events beyond the control of LMHA that may arise making it impractical or illegal to
continue with a season, including but not limited to a government-declared public health
emergency, act of God, natural disaster, etc.

Players who have been injured and miss or are out for more than 8 weeks may qualify for a
partial refund. In this case the original injury must have been reported when it happened and
must be accompanied by a doctor’s note stating the player was unable to participate and the
duration of the injury. Players who are out with an injury and then return will be refunded for the
portion of the season they missed only after missing more than 8 weeks.

Refund requests for injury reasons must be submitted prior to April 30 of each year.
