Withdrawal Policy - Before & After and Event Begins
​
Withdrawal Procedure - Before an Event Begins:
​
If you need to withdraw from an event before it begins, please email the Tour staff as soon as possible to avoid fees and so we may add another player from the waitlist.
All withdrawals MUST be done via email for recordkeeping purposes. Please contact us via email, staff@gwjuniortour.com. Withdrawals will NOT be accepted over the phone or text.
​
In the body of the email, make sure to include the player’s full name, the name of the event(s), and the date of the event(s). If there is no stated request for either a refund or credit, GJT will default to issuing credit. Once this has been received by the staff, you will receive an email confirming your withdrawal.
​
Withdrawals received 6 days or more before an event will receive a full credit towards any future event with us, or a refund with a $50 fee.
​
Withdrawals received between 3 - 5 days before the event will receive a 50% credit towards any future events, but no refunds.
​
Any withdrawals received inside 2 days of the event will not receive any credit or refund
​
*11:59 pm is used as the cutoff time for a day in regards to this policy*
