We understand that at times you may need to cancel your player's registration and request a refund. However, immediately following the conclusion of our registration period, the non-profit League incurs significant costs to prepare for the start of a season, including player, team, facility, insurance, and governing body related expenses. Since our expense-per-player increases as the start of the season approaches, we have established a sliding-scale refund policy so that issued refunds cover the League's expenses already incurred for that player.
This policy only applies to LTJBSA programs and does not extend to programs produced by our partners. Our partners may have different cancellation policies. Review our partners cancellation policies for their procedures.
If the LTJBSA receives your cancellation request:
Before Registration Closes
100% of your payment will be refunded, less a $20 processing fee (per registration transaction) incurred by the League.
Before Spring Assessment Day / First Session of Fall Ball / More Than 7 Days Prior to a Clinic
40% of your registration payment will be refunded.
After the First Game of the Season / First Session of Fall Ball / Less Than 7 Days Prior to a Clinic
No refunds will be issued.
To receive a refund, you must request it via an email sent to [email protected] with "Registration Cancelation" as the subject. The body of the message must include:
- Your player's full name
- Your order number
- The email address of your LTJBSA account
- Division and Level of play they are registered for
- Reason for cancelling.
If you cancel one sibling in a family and have received a family discount, that discount will be cancelled and you must pay the difference between full price and the family discount on any player that continues playing in the league. This payment must be made within 72 hours or the sibling will be removed from their team for non-payment.
Your cancellation request must be received no later than 5:00 pm ET on the dates specified above. We will process your refund within 7 days of receipt. Funds will be refunded via the original payment method. Please note that emailing your player's coach does not constitute a cancellation request.
A Note on Inclement Weather
At the LTJBSA, we always want to play ball. Sometimes, however, springtime weather in Lawrence Township doesn't cooperate and we must postpone games. Our Leagues do their best to reschedule every game that is affected by weather, but our ability to do so is limited by the condition of our playing fields. We build makeup days into our schedules, and our volunteers will work in the field with sump pumps and leaf blowers to dry our fields as soon as storms have left the areas.
Unfortunately, despite everyone's best efforts, mother nature sometimes deposits more water than our fields can handle and we must cancel games that we cannot make up. This sometimes can occur even if it's sunny, because the fields are still muddy and slippery from a previous days storm.
Regardless of how many games our played in a season, our non-profit Leagues incur expenses to put players on the field (we lose approx. $60/player per season, a gap we make up via fundraising). .As such, we do not offer refunds for games not played in a season.
