How to get a refund from a sport’s club that my daughter decoded to leave?
I paid $3000to a basketball club for my daughter to attend this summer. It included numerous tournaments fees, air line fees, etc. My daughter participated in only one event, then we decided to not continue with this club. How can I get a refund of a portion of the payment?

I am sure that you signed certain papers and filled out many forms when you signed her up for this camp. Those forms would be seen as binding contracts in most cases and you would have to read them carefully - the fine print too - to see what exactly they say on the issue. If she started participating I am sure that the date to cancel has passed. You did not give any information here as to why she stopped participating in the camp. Those details could be helpful. Was it a medical reason? Could you get a doctor's note? Was it because the program was not really as it was represented? You need to either fit within the parameters of the acceptable reasons to leave (medical) or show that there was either a breach or violation of contract law to be able to declare the contract void or voidable. Good luck.
