When Fees Are Due

Fees are posted to your MyClubHub account at the beginning of each month and should be paid in full by the end of the month. You can make payments in any amount, at any time throughout the month – whatever works best for your budget.

How to Pay 

The easiest way to pay is to set autopay in your MyClubHub account.

Make payments anytime during the month in amounts that work best for your family.

We accept ACH (bank transfer) and credit/debit cards.

A small processing fee applies for card payments.

If Plans Change

We understand that plans change. Fees hold your child’s spot, but we know life happens.

Late payments? Absences? We’re here to help.

Scholarships or adjusted fees may be available if your family’s circumstances change. Fees are prorated for children who join mid-month but are not refunded if your child is absent or withdraws from the Club.

FAQs

We know families may have questions about membership.

Here are answers to questions we hear most often.

General Questions

Monthly fees vary by location and program length. Reduced rates are available based on household size and income. Teen membership (middle and high school) is free.

Reduced fees are determined using your household income and the number of people living in your home, based on federal poverty guidelines.

Anyone living in your home should be included, including grandparents. Adults with income should be included in the total household income.

No. Fees are divided into 9 equal payments across the school year, so they remain consistent even during months with holidays or breaks.

Yes. Your first month’s fee will be adjusted based on your child’s start date.

Payments

Fees are posted at the beginning of each month and should be paid by the end of the month. You may make payments in smaller amounts throughout the month.

Payments can be made through MyClubHub via ACH (bank transfer) or credit/debit card (a processing fee applies to card payments). Autopay is also available.

Our team will reach out with reminders and support. If fees remain unpaid, your child may lose eligibility. If your financial situation has changed, please contact us right away—we may be able to help.
