The Argos Football and cheer program has experienced tremendous growth of early registrations over the last several years, with some of our levels closing within a few weeks of opening. As such we have changed our refund policy for 2025 and beyond. In nearly all circumstances, your registration should be considered final and ineligible for any refund. Algonquin Argonauts Football and Cheer has set the following guidelines on refunds with regards to registration fees for our youth sports programs.
If a refund is desired, the account holder must email us at [email protected] and request a refund in writing.
Every refund that is requested for eligible reasons, will be reviewed by the Argo Board for approval.
Approved refunds submitted prior to June 1st, 2025, will be for total amount paid to date in 2025, less a $75 cancellation fee.
Approved refunds submitted prior to August 1st, 2025, will be for the total amount paid to date in 2025, less a $75 cancellation fee, and less the cost of any custom equipment, uniform items, or swag bag contents (any of these items whose cost is deducted from an approved refund amount will be made available for pickup once our vendor shipments arrive).
Eligible reasons for a refund are as follows.
Medical: A doctor's note written specifically for the Argonauts program that outlines the condition that will prohibit the athlete's participation for the duration of the season is required.
Home address of the registered athlete changes: Only new addresses outside of a 10 mile radius of Westfield Community School, 2100 Sleepy Hollow Rd, Algonquin, IL, will be considered. Proof of new address (copy of lease, updated government issued photo ID, etc) will be required prior to board review of refund requests.
Refund requests for any other reasons except for Medical or Address changes will not be reviewed or approved. This includes but is not limited to: unhappy with team assignment, friends participate with a different program, athlete changes their mind, etc.
After August 1st, 2025, refund requests for any reason, eligible or otherwise, will not be reviewed or approved.
