Exceptions to these policies are made only if a player relocates more than 50 miles from the Chicago Rec Sports main office. Conflicts with practice schedules are not grounds for refunds or credits, and there are no refunds or credits for programming postponed or canceled due to weather, forfeits, acts of God, or world events.
