Seasonal Bulletin 2019-2020
Seasons
Autumn season for sports groups 19.8. – 8.12.019
Spring season for sports groups 13.1. – 10.5.2020.
After the regular training season has come to its conclusion, there are still Christmas show rehearsals and possible replacement sessions to be held during the autumn season. These will be communicated to the groups separately.
Beginning in the autumn, a group will continue into the spring season and registration will automatically cover the spring season, so no new registration is required at the beginning of 2020. If you do not wish to continue after the autumn season has ended, the spot held by the gymnast should be removed from the spring group. You can’t just leave the spring group by not turning up, but the spot has to be cancelled separately, see the instructions below.
By registering in a group, you agree to our terms and conditions. Please read them well before registering on the Member Information homepage. The homepage also explains how to carry out such things as changing groups or making cancellations.

Payments
A customer will receive a training invoice to their provided email. The invoice can also be paid online via Paytrail online. Smartum or ePassi vouchers can be used for adult training payments. Membership fees or children’s training fees cannot be paid with such vouchers.
Training fees will be charged in full for anyone starting by 14.10.19. After that date, members joining in will be charged half of the training fee. The full payment due date for the spring season is March 15, 2020. After that date, members joining in will be charged half of the training fee.
Invoices are also displayed in the membership register of the gymnast, from where they can also be printed. A reminder invoice will be sent by email. Unpaid training fees are forwarded to a debt collection agency for recovery.
In addition to the training fee, a club membership fee of EUR 25 is charged from all gymnasts in the groups. It will be paid once between 1.8.2018-31.7.2019.
Cancellation of a spot
A gymnast will have the opportunity to cancel their spot in a group before the third training session, in which case we will refund the training fee and charge a reservation fee of EUR 20. If the spot is cancelled 24 hours before the first training session, no registration fee will be charged.
When a gymnast receives a spot in a group (including from a backup list), he or she can trial the group two times. We charge a trial fee of 20 euros for the trial. The charge is the same, even if the group is only trialled once.
After the trial period, the gymnast should cancel their spot 24 hours before the third training session if he / she does not wish to continue. After the third training session, the gymnast is obligated to paying the training fee for the full season.
The cancellation of a spot must be made in the member register by removing the gymnast from the group. Cancel by clicking the trash icon next to the group name on the Participations tab in the own information section. Simply notifying the instructor or sending an email is not enough to cancel a spot!
If the number of participants in the group is less than half the size of the intended group, the group may be cancelled and the fee refunded.
Absences
Occasional absences are not compensated for and absences cannot be replaced by spots in another group. Any illness or injury that lasts more than 2 weeks will be dealt with separately, with the need to present a medical certificate. Due to competitions or club events in Tuulimäki, cancelled lessons are noted in the training fees, so training times are not replaced. Days without lessons due to holidays or their eves are not compensated. Neither does the club compensate for the loss of hours when the training facility is down due to the use of another entity, such as the city or school. Individual absences need not be reported to the supervisor or to the office, unless specifically requested.
All participants in the club are insured by OP Insurance Group accident insurance. In the event of an accident, please contact the club office. Learn more about the insurance.
As a rule, events are announced by e-mail and on the club’s website www.espoontelinetaiturit.fi. Parents should check and, if necessary, update their own contact details and that of their dependent children in the membership register. Please make sure that the guardian’s phone number and email address in the children’s information are in their own boxes, not just in additional details. Keeping information up-to-date guarantees the conditions for smooth communication throughout the season
