LNYSA Refund Policy
We understand that plans can change. This page outlines refund deadlines, how to request a refund,
and the information needed to help us process your request as quickly as possible.
Refunds are available for players who are fully registered and have
paid registration fees, provided the request is submitted by the deadlines below.
⏳ Refund Deadlines
-
Fall Season: Refund requests must be submitted no later than 4 weeks before Opening Day.
For the 2026 Fall season, the refund deadline is August 8, 2026.
-
Spring Season: Refund requests must be submitted no later than 4 weeks before Opening Day.
For the 2026 Spring season, the refund deadline is February 7, 2026.
Opening Day dates are published each season on LNYSA.org.
After these deadlines, refunds are generally not available due to pre-committed season costs.
Why Refund Deadlines Matter
As a nonprofit, volunteer-run league, LNYSA begins committing to season expenses well before the first game.
These include governing body registration fees, insurance, field permits, referee scheduling, and uniform ordering—many of which are paid in advance and are non-refundable.
To keep our programs affordable for all families, we’re unable to absorb these fixed costs for late cancellations. We appreciate your understanding and support of our community-based program.
We’re Here to Help
If your plans change after the deadline, please still reach out—we’ll always try to help where we can.
- 💳 Future season credit may be considered on a case-by-case basis
- 👕 Uniform transfer to a sibling or future season, when possible
- ⚽ Waitlist replacement if another player is able to take the spot
Our goal is always to be fair while keeping the league running smoothly for all families.
