All fees must be paid by the due date specified at the time of registration or invoicing.

The Team Manager agrees to be liable for all reasonable costs incurred in recovering overdue payments, including but not limited to debt collection fees, administrative costs, and legal expenses, to the extent permitted by law.

4. Withdrawals, Refunds & Transfers

• Change of mind: No refunds will be issued for withdrawals after registration deadlines.
  
• Late withdrawals: Withdrawals after uniforms are ordered are not eligible for a refund due to production costs.
