Team Membership Information

Like all amateur sports in the United States, competitive swimming teams are supported by fees paid or raised by the member families.  We are proud of the fact that our team's fees are among the lowest in the country for a program of our scope & magnitude.

The fees presented below represent the bulk of the team charged fees.  There may be additional small fees for some team activities, fees for travel and major fund raising projects that are not listed below.  You will also be responsible for purchasing team swimsuits, caps, warm-ups, parkas, t-shirts, etc.

 

Coaching Fees
Family Assesment Fee
Bolles Sharks Registration

The Sharks offers two options for payment of fees.  The first is a seasonal payment, which are three payments of a four-month time block.  The other choice is monthly payments.  The seasonal plan offers significant savings, however, it must be paid on time and in full in order to receive the savings.  Once late with payment or your swimmer goes inactive; you forfeit this seasonal payment option.  The monthly and seasonal plans will be billed to you through the school and are due by the 25th of the month.  Any seasonal payment not paid by the 25th of the month will automatically be changed to the monthly billing plan.  In addition, a finance charge of 1.5% per month (18% per annum) is applied to any unpaid balance.

Each family is a member of the Sharks Boosters.  This organization is responsible for the operating funds of the Sharks, which includes equipment, facility rental and other general operating expenses.  This yearly budget exceeds $30,000.00; therefore, Family Assessments are essential for the operation of our organization.

The Sharks fiscal year is September - August.  Your initial assessment fee is due at the time of registration.   Each year thereafter payment is due by November 1st.   The yearly assessment fee is $250.00 and is to be paid direct or through advertisement sales.  A late fee of $50.00 will be added to any unpaid assessments as of November 1st.

This is NOT a billed fee - please pay at or return the forms to the pool office.

 

Escrow Account
An account of $100.00 per swimmers held in an escrow account to pay entry fees at the meets which require them.  For most younger and beginner swimmers these charges are nominal or nonexistent.  Older swimmers must keep this account up to date and although the minimum is $100.00, you may exceed this balance if you feel it is necessary.  Each month your bill will reflect any funds used and the meet for which they were used, at which time it will be necessary for the account to be brought back up to $100.00.

 

Each year, we need to get updated information for each family.  Click here to get the current Bolles Sharks registration form.
