1. Why 288? Why not 613 or another number?
That idea was our Senior Coordinator's. Something about
working as a spy at Canada's Wonderland north of Toronto and that was his radio call sign thing, we really weren't paying attention
to what he was blabbing about.
2. What are your current payment options?
No, wait, just pizza can't pay the rent.
Since we're still starting up, our payment options are quite limited. These are the only payment options we are able to take:
The only form of credit card we can take is Paypal.
Pizza and a coke perhaps...?
$20.35 for a 50 minute game A dollar from each game goes to a select charity of our choice! 3. What is your refund policy? You are eligible for a full refund 2 weeks before opening day of any league, minus a $75 administration fee. Not sure why you would want to leave such a hilarious, and informal league where you forget about your troubles, but
whatevs.
4. Can we have more than 12 players on our 3-on-3 ball hockey team? Sure, but the maximum of players dressed is 12. It's up to the team themselves to organize who plays and who doesn't
to meet the minimum (of 3 players plus a goalie) and maximum.
5. If we can't make a certain day, any chance we can move our games to another one? As of right now, no, there is no chance of that happening. We can probably move times around of the same day, but due to
288 Sports renting out the facilities on a specific times, it would be quite difficult to move a game to a different day
completely. 6. Why do we need a bond? What is it? A bond is something that requires leather straps, leather mask, and----------what?
OH! You mean for the ball hockey league! Der...
We require the $200 bond as a form of insurance, such as preventing a team from no-showing every week for whatever reason. If
they no-showed, we would transfer the $200 (minus a $25 admin fee) to the other team. We also hold it as a player disciplinary tool. For example, if (and without naming any names) Brad Marchand were to join
the league and does something very stupid (like lick someone), not only does 288 Sports have the option of suspending and/or
charity fine him, we would take some or all of the team bond and transfer it as a credit to the other team's account. Brad Marchand's team must top up their bond back up to $200 before playing their next game. All bonds will be returned to their
respective teams by the end of the season, unless they have registered for the next one and that bond will be towards it. 288 Sports does, however, reserve the right to make the final decision in these matters.
Charity fines is a way for 288 Sports giving back to the community, especially this early into our start up. Going back to
the Brad Marchand example, depending on the severity of stupidness, we would charity fine him X amount of dollars for his transgression,
but 288 Sports never sees that money. All we want to see is the donation receipt, that's it.
All Brad Marchand would have to either show is the tax receipt of his donation, or he would have to sit out for Y number of games
until then.
8. Do we have to have numbered shirts for ball hockey? Can we bring our own numbered shirts? Short answer, yes. Long answer, also yes, because we will be recording basic stats, like goals, assists, penalty minutes, and goals against
average. Trust us, it's much more fun that way. As for bringing your own numbered shirts, the only ones are with the team name are allowed. That means we do not allow any
ones from outside leagues. We're kinda cold-blooded that way. If a team has their own shirt, please inform us of the colour so that we can coordinate that aspect between different teams.
$30 for a 80 minute game
$40 for a 110 minute game
$60 for a 180 minute game
