This policy outlines the process for Club Members, including parents, carers, or representatives acting on behalf of MiniRoo or Junior players, to request a refund of registration fees from Rockville Rovers FC.
All refund requests must be submitted via email to treasurer@rockvillerovers.com, including relevant details. Refunds are assessed on a case-by-case basis and are granted at the Club’s discretion.
Please note that any fees paid to governing bodies such as Football Queensland or PlayFootball are not managed by the Club and are subject to the separate refund policies and procedures of those organisations, which determine eligibility independently.
