However, in case of an unforeseen cancellation, the event partner(s) will communicate with you as early as possible. 

Teams should make sure their contact information on events.vex.com is up to date, and includes phone numbers that they will be able to access during weekends and / or holidays, in case of any urgent communications become necessary.

سياسات الاسترداد والدفع

If the Event Partner cancels the event:

Event partner(s) will try their best to issue full refunds (minus the $10 processing fee ) in the event of an unforeseen cancellation.

If a Coach/Mentor completes registration for the event and then chooses to withdraw or not attend:

Registrations will not be refunded for teams that registered but did not attend. If there are teams on the waiting list that can backfill vacated spots, and if you let us know at least five weeks before the event date, refunds  can be provided.

Teams registered after payment deadline will need to pay registration fee within 1 week.  If payment is not received, teams will be moved to the waitlist, and teams from the waitlist will be offered the spot. Reminders will be sent before the payment deadline. Unless you have an explicit exception from the event partner, your team will be placed back on the waitlist if payment is not received by the payment deadline.
