Halton Hills Minor Hockey
Refund Policy
Effective March 2025
Purpose:
To establish a process for refunding players their hockey fees if approved and within the below
criteria. A lot of factors will come into play regarding refunds.
HHMH pays hockey insurance for all members, we have administration fees, uniform costs,
league fees and ice costs, etc. Most of these fees are paid upfront which means we won’t have
these expenses returned to us and therefore we won’t be able to return those funds to you.
We recognize that there are circumstances when a refund will be requested. These requests
must be made through the HHMH website. Parents are directed to the following link:

Refund requests are approved by the VP of Administration.
Policy Guidelines:
Registration Fee Refunds
The following are guidelines for refunds that are accepted and what amount or percentage
would be returned:
Withdrawal from program requested two
weeks prior to the start of the season (HL) |
Registration fees less administration fee of
$50 |
Once commitment signed – REP
And/or
Request due to movement |
No release will be provided unless discussed with
coaches and HHMH Board. No refund of League or team fees.
If there is movement between team’s levels, all fees must
be paid to the initial signed team before moving to the next.
|
Request for registration fee refunds made
prior to October 30th, due to illness or
injury, that results in a player missing the
entirety of the remainder of the season will
be determined by the Board, VP of
Administration, or in conjunction with the
appropriate VP and Parent Liaison. All such
refund requests will require a doctor’s
note, provided, and paid for by the family
that states the player cannot participate in
organized hockey for the remainder of the
season. |
The Board will review on a case-by-case
basis and may approve a prorated credit
less the administration fee and insurance
fee, to be applied to the player’s account
for the following season. |
Refund of registration fees if entire season
is cancelled prior to the start of program. |
If it is deemed by HHMH, Town of Halton
Hills, Halton Public Health, OMHA, OHF or
Hockey Canada, that it is unsafe to proceed,
and our entire season is cancelled (example
due to pandemic), all registration fees will
be refunded within 60 days apart from the
administration fee of $50 and uniform
(jersey/sock) costs if applicable. |
No registration fee refunds will be given due to suspensions or any other contravention of the association’s code of conduct that results in the player being barred from playing by the association, the OMHA, the OHF and/or the referee’s association regardless of the date of the request.
REP Refunds
The following guidelines are also noted in the HHMH REP Team Finance Policy.
All refunds are handled by the team with the player. If there is assistance needed with calculating amounts between teams or the amount to be refunded, please contact the Treasurer or VP of Administration.
When there are player changes to a team due to one of the following reasons;
1. The Player is moved up to another team due to changes.
2. The Player does not continue with team due to injury.
The following guidelines for the team apply;
1. U10 – U18: If the change happens before October 30th – only if there is a replacement player (in all categories AA, A, B, BB), the amount is calculated based on activities not participated, less $50 administration fee and $50 insurance fee
2. U7-U9: If change happens before November 15th – only if there is a replacement player in both MD1 and MD2, the amount is calculated based on activities not participated, less $50 administration fee and $50 insurance fee
3. If Player injury is reason for leaving, prorated based on medical reason and team activity completed to date.
Sponsorship/Fundraising (non-transferable)
The player’s sponsorship/fundraising contribution will remain with the team the player was originally selected to. There will be no transfer of sponsorship/fundraising money to the team the player is moving to.
Coaches can replace the player with the assistance and approval of the Director of Operations or Director of Rep. If the coach decides not to replace the player, with approval from Director of Operations, and to refund the player leaving, the costs of the team are to be covered by the remaining members and/or additional fundraising initiatives.
