1. FEES & MEMBERSHIPS

Athletes *must* hold a current Athletics Alberta ANNUAL membership in order to register for Edmonton Thunder.


A. EDMONTON THUNDER ANNUAL REGISTRATION
Full year registration for Edmonton Thunder (September to July 31) is $600 for younger thunder and $650 for older thunder, payable upon registration.  Volunteer requirements include: 2 Casino shifts (worked in even years, next Casino will be in 2020), a minimum of 1 track meet or a board position and a fundraising activity in odd years (Fall of 2019)


Registration fees cover facility fees, equipment, meet fees, and coaching.

A deposit cheque of $75 is required for use of the team singlet. Singlets are borrowed prior to the first track meet and returned at the end of the season. Cheques will be returned or destroyed once the singlet is returned.

​NOTE: An Athletics Alberta membership is also mandatory. You must purchase your athlete's membership directly through the Athletics Alberta website and keep it current for the entire season.

B. CAPS and Funding
We have caps on group sizes.  If you are applying through a third party for financial assistance please contact the registrar to discuss registration process for subsidized athletes (all discussions will be confidential).  If the group you are applying for is full when you register please place yourself on the waitlist - available slots will be assigned based on waitlist priority.

​C
. ATHLETICS ALBERTA ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP
In order to register with Edmonton Thunder, your athlete must first have a current ANNUAL membership with Athletics Alberta. 
You will be responsible for renewing your athlete's AA membership each January. If the membership is not renewed, your athlete will not be eligible to participate in any meets or practices. It is the responsibility of the parent or guardian of the athlete to maintain the membership. If you are new to track and haven't signed up for an Athletics Alberta Membership, please wait until September 1st to sign up to avoid paying for the fall portion twice.

2. FUNDRAISING & VOLUNTEERING​

Participation in our volunteer events is mandatory for the families of our athletes. 
A. BI-YEARLY CASINO FUNDRAISER
​
Edmonton Thunder has a casino slot every second year in even years (2020, 2022, and so on). In casino years, each athlete's family must provide at least two volunteers to work the casino. There is no cash payment alternative: Volunteers must be provided, because we require the full complement of volunteers to meet our commitment to continue with the casino in the future. 

B. BI-YEARLY FUNDRAISER
​
Edmonton Thunder has a casino slot every second year in even years  In non-casino years, our club holds a fundraiser. You will be required to participate as a member of Edmonton Thunder. Information will be available at registration. 

C. TRACK MEET VOLUNTEER HOURS
Edmonton Thunder is required to provide volunteers from time to time to support Athletics Alberta track meets. Each family must work the equivalent of a full day (8 hours) at a track meet sometime throughout the year. The track meets operate entirely on volunteers, including officials. It is important that we fulfill our club commitment to ensure these meet opportunities continue to be available for our athletes in the future. Emails will be sent out requesting volunteers.
​
​NOTE:
 If a family has contributed significant hours to assisting the team (team parent, assistant coaching), coaches may deem that the track meet volunteering requirement has been fulfilled. Being a member of the Edmonton Thunder Board can also fulfill volunteer requirements.  ​
