Inclusions & Exclusion : The fees depicted above include ALL costs such as coaching, equipment, special programs, referees, athletic trainers and fields. Importantly, Marin FC includes in the team fees hotel and van/car rentals at travel events. Excluded from the fees are uniforms and airfare (or intercity charters) for travel events.

Refunds at Season’s End : Every team at Marin FC has a unique team planner and budget. The fees shown above are a collection system to ensure all teams are adequately funded for all expenses including coaching, equipment, tournament, hotels, van/car rentals, and league fees, etc. but excluding uniform and airfare costs. Marin FC plans team budgets carefully and collection intends to surpass by a reasonable safety margin the team budget.  Inflation and other market facotrs can affect all budget planning and predictions. Any excess revenue remaining at the season ‘close out’ is proportionately REFUNDED to the players including financial aid recipients. Should expenses exceed team fee collection, an amount due per player is claculated and invoiced.

The Monthly Team Fee is a maximum of ten (10) payments for Red and Blue teams who play a full year calendar. For Steel and Titanium teams who play a half year schedule, there is a maximum of five (5) monthly payments. Payments begin the month following tryouts, team formation and registration (usually July). If Steel or Titanium teams elect to extend their season to a full year, the additional five (5) monthly payments apply.

RVP Refunds : The Referee and Volunteer Program (RVP) deposit is included in the registration fee, so players who volunteer or referee during the season will earn a $200 refund. The total fees shown above at the right include this potential refund.

Blue Teams : Players on Marin FC’s first teams (Blue) may see an increase to their monthly team fee amount of between 25-50% ($50-$100) due to these teams’ increased training, competition, and travel schedules.
