Ajax United serves over 375 players from more than 300 families on 28 teams. Our program would become overly expensive if all tasks of the club were completed by paid staff. Lots of volunteers are needed to provide our players and families with a high quality program filled with fun and personal development.
After Club volunteer hours are performed, a reimbursement form must be completed, signed and submitted to the office. Reimbursement will only be authorized after 5 hours have been completed. The funds will be credited to the player’s account. Reimbursement forms must be submitted by the end of the season and no reimbursements will be issued after the end of the season. These hours must be performed by a person who is at least 18 years old.

Player Payment Procedures: All payments are due on the first of every month and will be made to the Club. Club and team fees will be combined for one total due each month and posted to Blue Sombrero accounts. We encourage families to enroll in the auto-pay on our website. Payments can be made by check or cash in the office during office hours.
Delinquent Accounts: A player with fees that are past due (over 30 days), and who has not tried to work out a "payment plan" or submitted a scholarship request by the due date, will be placed in bad standing with Ajax United until such time as the financial obligation has been resolved. A player in bad standing with Ajax United may not be rostered on a team, issued a player pass or participate in practices and/or games. In the cases of families with multiple players, an "in bad standing" status of one player will apply to all players in a family. Additionally, if applicable, a late fee may be charged for late payments. Payment issues should not be discussed with coaches. Please contact the Ajax United Finance Department with any questions.
Player Statements: We will not be distributing Player Statements. Instead, player accounts can be accessed online. However, check or cash payments may not be recorded right away.
Fundraising: If your team will fundraise, you must have a fundraising committee or person in charge. Please see the Team Fundraising tab for more information. Player accounts will be credited as a payment. Absolutely no fundraisers involving "Sports Pools" or gambling of any kind are allowed.
Team Equipment: Equipment purchased with team funds becomes the property of the Team or Club.
Coach Travel: When travel is beyond the Region 8 area, mileage reimbursement will be made at the IRS business rate of .54 per mile (from the Complex to the field and back). When an overnight stay is necessary, a reasonable hotel charge will be reimbursed with team funds.
Financial Aid (Ajax Scholarships): A limited and fixed amount of financial aid is available to families experiencing hardships. Forms are available on our website under the Competitive tab. Applications must be submitted to the office by July 1st.
Late applications will not be accepted. The Committee will meet during the first week of the following month and notification will be sent to the families immediately after that. If awarded a scholarship, player accounts will be credited.
Injured Players: Players that have an extensive injury or illness may have a portion of their monthly Club Fees reduced. A $50 reduction in Club Fees may be allowed for injuries or illnesses lasting more than 2 months. A doctor’s note, along with the Ajax Committee’s approval is required for a fee reduction.
Sponsorships/Donations: Any Sponsorships should be made payable to Ajax United and will be credited 80% to the player responsible for acquiring the donation and 20% to be divided between the other players on the team at the time.
