Questions Regarding
Youth Athletic Leagues
Why isn’t winning important?
The philosophy of the Sugar Grove Park Distict provides
for local league sports programs with emphasis on the
development of the child both as an individual and as an
athlete. The goal of this program is to provide an enjoyable,
safe atmosphere in which children can learn respect,
sportsmanship and specific sport skills.
Who is coaching my child?
All Park District league coaches are volunteers who are trained
and certified by the Park District using the National Youth
Sports Coaches Association clinics. This program teaches
coaches about important topics such as the psychology of
coaching youth sports, tips on teaching and communication,
parents as partners, injury prevention, hydration and specific
sport skills. VOLUNTEER COACHES ARE NEEDED. If
you are interested in volunteering as a coach, fill out the Coach
Application on page 27. Applications are accepted once
registration for that specific league opens.
What equipment is needed?
Basketball - Sugar Grove Park District game shirts are part of
the registration fee and are handed out by the coach.
Baseball/Softball/T-ball/Tiny Sluggers - Sugar Grove Park
District jerseys are part of the registration fee and are handed
out by the coach.
Where and when are practices?
Typically, the first two weeks are set aside for practice at
various parks and school sites. Teams usually meet no more
than twice a week. Practice times and location are set by the
coaches since they volunteer their time. Players are contacted
by coaches after teams have been formed at the coaches’
meeting.
When is the first practice?
Coaches inform players of their first practice. If you don’t
receive a phone call from your coach one week prior to the
start date, please call our office at 630-466-7436.
Who will answer my questions?
Ask your coach first. If he/she is unable to answer your
question, please contact Liz at 630-466-7436, ext. 15.

Seniors, Want a Free Lunch?
There’s only one place in Sugar Grove to come every month
for food, fun and fellowship. Oh, and here you get all three for
FREE! Might be hard to believe, but it is true.
Come for the food and stay for the entertainment. Enjoy a
few hours with other seniors in the community and learn the
scuttlebutt about what’s happening around town all while
enjoying a great spread of food followed by bingo. Plus, it
never hurts to win prizes.
The nice folks at the Sugar Grove Township, Sugar Grove
Park District and Sugar Grove Community Building buy the
delicious catered lunch – if you RSVP, of course. Call Julie at

Good Time Guarantee
Winter 2015-16
Sugar Grove Park District
confident that our recreation programs provide high
quality enjoyment that we are backing them with a
policy called the “Good Time Guarantee”. If you are
unsatisfied for any reason with the quality of
instruction, your child’s ability to adapt emotionally
in the class, or the appropriateness of the class skill
level, you can receive a full refund of your program
registration fee.
Guidelines
At the Sugar Grove Park District, we are committed to
providing the public with high quality recreation
programs. Our residents are important to us and we
feel they deserve quality at all times. We are so
1. Participant must attend the first two classes of a recreation program that spans 6 or more classes.
2. A “Program Refund Application Form” must be filled out appropriately and received by the park
district office prior to the third class meeting.
3. Forms are available online at www.sgparks.org or in our office.
4. This policy does not apply to short-term programs, CARE, and youth athletic leagues.
Program Refunds
All refund requests must be made in writing on the Program
Refund Application Form found on our website at
www.sgparks.org/forms-contracts.
• Class Cancellations by Park District:
If a class is cancelled by the Park District, a full refund will automatically be mailed to the person who was enrolled in the class. If participant is a minor, the refund will be issued to the Parent/Guardian who signs the registration form. No refund form needs to be completed for a class cancellation.
If you wish to apply this refund to another class, you must notify the Park District immediately.
• Refunds After Start of Recreation Program:
As part of our Good Time
Guarantee, a refund can be
made after attending 2 classes
of a program that spans 6
classes or more. Refund form
must be received by the park
district office before the 3rd
class meeting and no service
charge will be deducted. This
policy does not apply to shortterm programs, CARE, or
athletic leagues. No refunds
after the 3rd class meeting.
www.sgparks.org
• Short-Term Program Refunds:
Applications for refunds for programs meeting less than 6 times must be submitted at least 5 business days prior to the first class in order to receive a refund minus a $10 service charge. If application is received less than 5 business days prior to start of program and it causes enrollment to fall
belowminimum and the spot cannot be filled, no refund
will be given. Refund requests will not be awarded after
the class has ended. Instances in which fees are $10 or less,
the service charge will be waived.
• Youth Athletic League Refunds:
Refunds requested before teams are formed will be issued a
full refund minus a $10 service charge. Once teams are
formed, a refund may be issued for athletic team partici-
pants (less costs and $10 service charge) if a replacement player is found or added from a waitlist. If no replacement is found for player, no refund will be issued.
• CARE Program Refunds:
As the payment structure of our CARE program is
complicated, please contact our office if you wish to withdraw from this program. A prorated refund may be
issued minus a $10 service charge.
