MEMBERSHIP CANCELLATION POLICY

The Southwest Florida Fencing Academy does not require contracts and does not issue refunds.  SportMember is used to manage our calendar, communications and payments. By using SportMember you are agreeing to SportMember’s payment processing procedures. Invoices are sent out through SportMember fourteen (14) days before a new month starts and accounts will be promptly charged for these invoices. Auto-payment is an option for your convenience to prevent late payments and to prevent a lapse in your fencing club membership. Monthly members may cancel their membership by properly submitting a cancellation request at least thirty (30) days prior to their next auto payment date. There are two options to cancel membership:

(1) Cancellations can be made in writing to our treasurer via email: (angela.abushahin@me.com),

(2) Members can manually elect in their SportMember account to leave the club, and if this process is properly completed, the automatic payments will stop. Please note payments will still process for previously issued invoices. 

Otherwise, in accordance with the member’s SportMember account, the Southwest Florida Fencing Academy remains authorized to charge the account provided by the member for automatic payment of their nonrefundable monthly membership dues. 

Prepaid (Annual) memberships (i.e., memberships that are paid in full in advance for a full 12 months) are nonrefundable, but are able to be paused for medical/personal leave by submitting a request in writing to our treasurer via email: (angela.abushahin@me.com). Prepaid (Annual) Memberships cannot be paused for more than twelve (12) months.
