Frequently asked questions

Are competition fees included in the academy fees?

Yes, competition fees are included in the academy fees—there are no additional or hidden costs.

​

Why are Academy fees higher than Academy Elite fees?

Academy fees are higher because they’re based on the number of games included in the season. While both programs offer training over the full 20 weeks, the Academy program includes more games, which increases the overall cost. We aim to keep fees fair by aligning them with the actual number of games and competition involvement.

When do payments start when I purchase a weekly payment option?

Payments begin right away and are spread out over the duration of your program. For example, if you’re enrolled in a 10-week program, there will be 10 payments. A 20-week program will have 20 payments. Keep in mind, holiday breaks might mean you finish paying off your program a little earlier than the end date.

Can a player join the 20-week academy program after the season has started?

Yes—if there’s an available spot and the player is a good fit for the team, they can join mid-season. If the program is full, they’ll be placed on a waiting list and are welcome to join our train-only program in the meantime. If a spot doesn’t open up during the season, they’ll have the opportunity to trial and join in the next one.
