​

1. PROGRAM COMMITMENT

Participation in the AZ EVO ELITE Puma NXTPRO Circuit is a commitment for the designated circuit season. Players and parents/guardians are expected to understand and fulfill all financial, attendance, travel, uniform, and participation requirements associated with the program.

A roster position represents a commitment to the team and program. Players and families are expected to conduct themselves in a manner that supports the team, coaches, teammates, opponents, officials, event staff, and the AZ EVO ELITE organization.

Failure to make required payments may result in:

• Loss of participation privileges.

• Removal from practices, games, or events.

• Removal from the team.

• Removal from the AZ EVO ELITE program.

Failure to make a payment does not automatically cancel the parent's financial obligation or create an entitlement to a refund.

​

3. ATTENDANCE & PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENTS

Players are expected to attend required practices, workouts, team activities, tournaments, and other program events. Players and parents/guardians are responsible for communicating scheduling conflicts with AZ EVO ELITE in a timely manner. Repeated absences, failure to attend required activities, or lack of commitment to the team's schedule may result in disciplinary action or removal from the team.

A player's failure to attend an event because of improper scheduling, personal decisions, or circumstances within the control of the player or parent/guardian does not automatically qualify for a refund.

Participation in the Puma NXTPRO Circuit may require travel to tournaments and events outside of Arizona.

Players and parents/guardians are responsible for understanding and complying with all required travel arrangements, deadlines, and requirements communicated by AZ EVO ELITE.

Parents/guardians are responsible for purchasing required player airfare or other transportation when designated as a parent/guardian responsibility. Failure or refusal to meet required travel commitments may result in the player being unable to participate in the applicable event or being removed from the team or program. Failure to travel to an event does not automatically qualify the player or family for a refund.
