Team Fees and Financial Information
BNSC’s Finance Committee meets a few
times each year to address budget issues, monthly training fees, and financial
policies. It is each family’s
responsibility to become familiar with BNSC’s financial policies.
For the most recent financial policy information, click
here.
If you have any questions regarding training fees, meet fees, billing,
budget issues, or financial policies, please contact Roger Wager (waarp4@frontier.com).
Monthly Training Fees:
Each
family will receive a monthly, itemized e-bill for their swimmer(s).
Monthly training fees are as follows:
Stroke Development: $80
Age Group 1: $95
Age Group 2:
$110
Junior Varsity:
$115
Senior Varsity:
$120
Families
with two (2) or more active
swimmers registered with BNSC will receive a discount on training fees.
A 10% discount will be applied to the training fees of the second and
subsequent swimmer(s) in the lowest training group(s).
ISI/USA Swimming Fees:
Added to each family’s e-bill once per
year is an annual ISI/USA Swimming Athlete Registration
fee (Illinois Swimming Incorporated).
This fee is typically $60 and is
required for any swimmer participating in ISI/USA
Swimming-sanctioned meets.
Meet Fees:
Included on each monthly e-bill are any
meet fees incurred. Meet charges
include fees for individual events, relay events, associated surcharges, etc.
that are assessed by the host team of a meet.
Our coaches must submit our team entries well in advance of the actual
meet, and those entries must be accompanied by payment for the entries.
The host team will not provide refunds, and therefore individual families
cannot receive a refund in cases of illness, etc.
Therefore, if you sign up for a meet, you will be billed for your
swimmer’s events at that meet, even if you do not attend.
Equipment:
Equipment costs are additional to the monthly fees.
If the equipment is offered through the team (special t-shirts, swim
caps, etc.), you will be e-billed.
Otherwise, you may contact or visit
The
Lifeguard Store
in Normal for a list of required and suggested equipment preferred by BNSC
coaches. If you have questions
regarding equipment, please talk to your swimmer’s coach.
Additional Resources:
BNSC also relies on external financial support of the club.
Our Sponsorship Committee is continually searching for businesses
interested in supporting our team.
