REFUNDS
A full refund will be issued for any cancellation received by at least 1 week prior to the start of the clinic. The administrative fee and the 3% online processing fee are not refundable for ANY reason.

A camp fee may not be transferred to any other Ohio State sports camp. A camp fee may not be transferred to any other camper. All cancellation notices must be received by the deadline above and submitted by mail, email, or fax – no phone calls or voicemails.
