 <\/p>\n

LOCATION<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
What days do the kids play?<\/div>

Gym time in Bethpage schools is limited. Age groups cannot all play at the same time each week. All divisions usually get games on different nights thru the season. The different nights usually allow kids to make most games if they have more than one commitment during the week. Saturday games are possible. Travel games begin for some Grades in 4th Grade & up. These games are in the other PAL towns, and you will travel to nearby gyms. Nights will vary.<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n

REQUESTS<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
Do you take requests?<\/div>

\u2192 Requests are honored when possible. It is more likely that requests will be honored at younger ages only. As they move along in the program, it is good for kids to be on teams with new friends they have not met and players will be mixed as best as possible to make fair teams.<\/span><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u2192 Please limit your requests to 1 or 2 kids. Requests that intermingle more than four kids together may not be honored.\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div>
Do you give refunds?<\/div>

\u2192 Divisions or Teams may be canceled and refunds given if there are not enough Coaches.\u00a0<\/span><\/h1>\n

<\/h1>\n

\u2192 Refunds are at the discretion of the Bethpage PAL.\u00a0<\/span><\/h1>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n
