The club trains throughout the year, including half terms and holidays but at Christmas some of the lower squads (usually Sharks, Dolphins, Bronze, JC, Platinum and possibly Silver and Tritons depending on the competition schedule) take a 2 week break. The whole club takes a break in August. 

Squad fees are calculated on a 12-month basis and so are payable each month throughout the year (including August). 

COMPETITION FEES

If a swimmer enters an external gala via the club, the quoted fee on the hosts program will be charged to your credit/debit card with an additional £10/swimmer administration charge. This extra charge helps to contribute to administration costs and to provide cover coaching while the squad coach(es) travels with the swimmers to the gala.

INJURY POLICY

If the swimmer sustains an injury that prevents them from training the parent should inform the Junior Coach Coordinator at kiri.mitchell.co.uk or the Head Coach at [email protected]. Fees will be suspended from 8 weeks after the injury commences.

PAYMENT METHOD

All monthly fees are collected via credit card on the 1st of the month. Fees for galas and club kit will be added to your account and collected on the 1st of the following month. You can review your account at any time by logging in (once you have been assigned a group/squad and enrolled by the adminstrator).

TERMINATION OF MEMBERSHIP

We require 30 days notice of termination of your membership by email. You will not be charged more than one months squad fees from the date of notification. If you stop your payment method with fees owing to the club, you will most likely be prevented from returning at a future date.
