Registration

Registration for the 2013-14 Season

 Online Registration – If your child is a returning PLMHA player, you are responsible for completing the online registration for them. This MUST be done to begin your registration process. (Please do not come to a walk in clinic if the online registration is not done.) The link can be found on the ‘registration’ page of the PLMHA website and should be ready to go by April 1^st 2013. There are 3 payment options available this year: cash, cheque and credit card. If you are planning on paying by credit card, please note that there is an additional $15 fee that will be added to your registration (please note that this was originally $10 but PLMHA was required to increase this fee to offset charges incurred by the association to have credit card payments available). This is not an optional fee. If you are paying by cash, then you will be required to attend one of the walk in registrations which will be listed on the website at a later date.  If paying by cheque, we have and will accept post dated cheques as long as the payment requirements are met (see below).

 **If you have a child that is new to the PLMHA, refer to the website for appropriate information**

 Registration/Payment Requirements – Just because you do the online registration, that does not deem your child registered. Payment MUST be received by the registrar and it MUST be received on or before June 30^th to avoid the additional $50 per family fee. As of July 1^st 2013, the $50 fee will be applied to accounts that payment has not been received, no exceptions.

A minimum of 75% of each player’s registration (which also includes fundraising) must be paid, on or before September 1^st in order for them to be permitted to go on the ice. (i.e. if a player is of novice age, their registration is $415 plus $150 fundraising totals $565, therefore 75% of the total $565 is due which is $423.75 - For those paying by cheque, it is NOT necessary to write a separate cheque for fundraising, this can be put on the same cheque as the registration.) The remaining 25% is due on or before November 1^st. Deposits will be made on the 1^st and 15^th of each month. If registration is not paid in full by November 1^st, your child will be removed and not permitted back on the ice until full payment is received.

For those wishing to pay in cash installments, you will be required to complete a “committed payment schedule” in which you will provide dates of future payments. Should you deviate from that ‘schedule’, your child will not be permitted on the ice until payment is received. If you require financial assistance, we plan to provide appropriate links on the website to various organizations that may be able to help, but feel free to send me an email and I will try to provide you with additional information. It will however be the parent’s responsibility to make the arrangements with the appropriate organization because PLMHA will not do that on behalf of the family.

**For those players with outstanding accounts from the 2012/2013 season please note that registration for the 2012/2013 season cannot and will not be considered until ALL OUTSTANDING FEES HAVE BEEN PAID IN FULL**

IMPORTANT REMINDERS

• A minimum of 75% of each player’s registration (which also includes fundraising) must be paid, on or before September 1^st in order for them to be permitted to go on the ice. (i.e. if a player is of novice age, their registration is $415 plus $150 fundraising totals $565, therefore 75% of the total $565 is due which is $423.75 - For those paying by cheque, it is NOT necessary to write a separate cheque for fundraising, this can be put on the same cheque as the registration.) The remaining 25% is due on or before November 1^st. Your registration is not complete until all registration forms and cheques are received - partial payments will not be accepted.
• Any persons not registered by June 30th, 2013 could be placed on a waiting list.
• Rep Tryout fees (Atom through Midget) are $25.00 and are to be paid at the first tryout. Players will not be allowed on the ice until tryout fee is paid. The fee is $25.00 regardless of how many tryouts ice times are attended. Players must be registered with the association prior to tryouts. Tryout times will be posted on the website.
• A $50.00 Competitive Fee for PeeWee and Bantam is also to be paid at the first tryout time and those that are released will have their $50 returned to them.
• A 15% (fifteen percent) discount off the basic fees only is offered to families of 3 or more registered children.

  Fundraising Fees: The 67’s program will not be part of the fundraising this coming season. Instead, it has been decided to add another 5 tickets to the raffle for a total of 30 tickets. Therefore, the raffle is the only means of fundraising for the PLMHA and will cost $150 (rather than the $125 plus the $50 for 67’s). The prize payouts will remain the same as last year and we encourage parents to put their child’s name on the ticket as the ‘Seller’ because if one of their tickets is drawn, the player will receive $25. For those that choose to mail their registration in or pay by credit card, unless you attend a walk in registration to collect your raffle tickets, you will not receive them until your child’s first ice time in September. They will not be mailed to you.

Age Eligibility & Basic Registration Fees

Players register in one of the following divisions based on their age as of December 31, 2013. All new players to PLMHA must provide proof of age (birth certificate, baptismal certificate or passport) and proof of residency. Contact the Registrar for further details if necessary.

Rates for the 2013-2014 Season

Refunds

All refund requests must be made in writing to the Association Registrar. A request for refund forms is available on the website. The refund amount is based on the date the completed form is received by the Registrar. A $25 administration fee will be charged for anyone requesting a refund between May 1, 2013 and August 30, 2013. A $50 refund fee will apply after September 1, 2013. Players under suspension will not be issued refunds. It is the responsibility of the parent/player to forward the completed refund form to the Registrar before December 30, 2013. Forms will not be accepted after this date. No refunds will be issued after December 31, 2013.

Competitive Hockey (Titans and Silver Seven)

All players must be registered in the home association before registering for tryouts at higher competitive level (Titans & Silver Seven). Separate tryout fees are charged by those clubs and home association registration is verified. No transfer forms are required for PLMHA players trying out for these teams. Please note: All fees are to be paid in full to the home association. Funds will then be forwarded to Titans and Silver Seven from the home association.

Transfers to Other Associations

Any player requesting a transfer to another association must be registered in the home association before any transfer can be considered.
