What is the Patriot's Refund Policy?

No refunds will be granted for cheerleaders/football players who are placed to H-Town Patriots.

Once a person registers the league begins to immediately incur cost, and our overall cost per cheerleader/player is well in excess of the registration fee. As a non-profit organization the Patriots must adhere to our no refund policy in order to sustain ongoing operations.
