A last reminder that training fees for Term2 are now due, and that late payment charges for any unpaid fees will be applied from Friday 19th May 2017.
If you are unsure whether you have paid your fees or not, please go to your child’s TeamSnap profile and select the Payments tab. The fees due for your child/children for this term will be noted there.
Please note that on your TeamSnap “home page”, it will show that you have no fees due for “Registration” – you paid this when your child first joined the Academy. You need to select your child’s profile, and then the Payments tab, to find this term’s Training Fees.
LATE PAYMENT CHARGES
We have introduced a late payment charge. A 10% charge will be added to all unpaid fees after the 4th week of term – for this term, the late fee will come into effect on Friday 19th May 2017.

We now accept PayPal through the TeamSnap application. Just go to the Payments tab on your child’s profile, and you will find the fee amount due and a link for PayPal if you would like to use this service. The link to PayPal only shows on the web version of TeamSnap, and unfortunately does not work on the mobile app.

PARKING
Please can we remind parent to avoid parking at the car park at Dempsey, especially during the early morning sessions. In particular, please avoid parking on the hill coming into Dempsey, as this leaves space for only one car to pass and causes bottlenecks both coming in and out of Dempsey.
More parking can be found behind Ben and Jerrys at Dempsey Hill.
