FALL/WINTER REGISTRATION OPENING SOON
Due to the burden of having coaches collect cash and/or cheques and track payments we have elected to require upfront payment for a session (this might be full season or a portion of season) at the time of registration. This is consistent with the vast majority of other SO community organizations in Ontario.
We do know that there will be situations in which individuals may find it not possible to pay the entire fee for a season upfront and we will make accommodations as appropriate. Please feel free to reach out to us at:
kw.coordinator@specialolympicsontario.ca to discuss as necessary.
For athletes that register on-line we will require payment at the first practice. Our treasurer will attend the first practice for each sport to facilitate payment. We have a SQUARE machine that will allow for debit or credit transactions. Athletes that have not paid or registered will not be able to participate until they are registered and have paid.
We know this is a big change for our community and we will be patient as we work through this change with our athletes and their supports.
In-person registration will take place at the Celebrating SOKW event on September 7th and at KW Habilitation on September 9th, from 6:30 pm to 8 p.m.
Check your email! The link to RSVP to a picnic to celebrate SOKW athletes, support workers, and family was sent out via email by coaches. The picnic will be taking place on September 7th from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. at Doon Pioneer Park Community Centre. Along with games, food, and great company, we will also be having registration for fall/winter sports at the event! (Information for an additional registration date at KW Hab coming soon!) We look forward to seeing you there!
