Tour Payments: Thank you for all your payments.
Spending Money: We propose that players deposit their spending money with MetroGirls for banking for a single currency exchange and transfer to the USA. This simplifies matters and safeguards against players or coaches individually carrying large amounts of cash (for which we are NOT insured), losing cash or card, or incurring individual exchange rate ntransactions.
We propose that player’s spending money is received by MetroGirls before or latest by Sunday 11th July 2010 for banking and transfer prior to the tour departure on the 22nd July 2010. Once in the USA we propose to return the girls money by $20 on arrival, 50% of the remainder on the morning of the next day, and the balance prior to the free weekend. However, if daughters require differing amounts, these will be accommodated. Please make cheques payable to ‘MetroGirls Lacrosse’ or send Bank bill payments, please contact Michelle or Tony for details.
Group Matching Back Pack: Whilst this currently is NOT include as part of the tour kit, a number of parents have suggested that we purchase matching backpacks for the girls. A suitable bag has been identified, but at £16 is much greater than the tour budget can support, and therefore to proceed a £10 per person contribution would be required. If you wish us to proceed we suggest that the cost is collected with your daughters spending money deposit.
