SBC will review requests for an adjustment to fees in the case of a significant injury or relocation or special circumstances. In the case of player cancellation, notice must be provided in advance to receive a credit which must be applied within the same season. Advance notice varies depending on the type of activity. Any adjustment or refund will be determined on a case by case basis by SBC. Administrative fees may apply. If SBC cancels or re-schedules any activity, a refund or credit will be provided. Refunds will be provided in the same manner in which payment was made and by e-check if payment was made via e-check or check. If payment was made by credit card via PayPal, refunds will appear on your PayPal account as a credit.
Significant Injury

A significant injury is defined as an injury that results in a player not being able to participate in activities for more than a six-week timeframe. In order for your request to be considered, you must submit a doctor's note.
Refunds fo Suspension of Play due to Environmental Factors
In the event any season is disrupted by a suspension of play due to environmental factors outside SBC's control, i.e. weather, health pandemic, Acts of God, etc. SBC will make its best effort to make-up any lost playing time. If the disruption becomes significant and play cannot be made up, SBC may issue a partial refund. Any refunds issued for such an event will be at the discretion of the SBC management team and will take into account most expenses are incurred upfront and therefore cannot be recaptured.
