There will be no refunds for players who withdraw less than five (5) working days (Monday through Friday) before a tournament (except for emergencies; these claims will be reviewed by the HSJGA Executive Committee). If a tournament is cancelled due to inclement weather, the junior will be refunded all but $10.00 of his/her entry fee for handling.
