FUNDRAISING GUIDELINES FOR TEAMS OF DELTA LACROSSE ASSOCIATION

 

1.       All individual team Fundraising must be informed to the Executive Committee of Delta Lacrosse before fundraising commences.

2.       Fundraising events such as Car Washes, Hot Dog/Hamburger Sales, Bottle Drives etc., must be booked and approved through our Executive Committee Fund Raising Liaison, to avoid double-ups in events and conflicts with other teams.

3.       Teams may open separate Bank Accounts for Fundraising purposes, however, they may not be established as Delta Lacrosse Assoc. or Delta Islander accounts, thereby misrepresenting the Association name. They can, for example, be entitled "Peewee B Lacrosse Fundraising Acct." Sub Accounts can be opened through the Delta Lacrosse Assoc. Executive and will be separated from our operation funds. Authorized members of the Executive have signing authority and will withdraw funds on your behalf as requested. Any money not used must be moved into the general account at the close of the event or season. Any cheques addressed to Delta Lacrosse Assoc. will be deposited in the Delta Lacrosse Assoc. general account.

4.       Teams cannot advertise (i.e. car wash signs, raffle tickets), fill out application forms or Lottery License applications under Delta Lacrosse Assoc. or Delta Islanders name.

5.       Teams must identify themselves as Delta Lacrosse or Delta Islander (Bantam "A" Team) for example, so as not to conflict with or associate any possible liability to the Delta Lacrosse Association.

6.       A list of current Delta Lacrosse Assoc. Sponsors is available through the fundraising liaison. Please request a copy prior to approaching local businesses for additional funds, prizes or food donations on behalf of your individual team. This will alleviate double-ups and negative responses as we in no way want to jeopardize or hassle these businesses and risk the loss of future sponsorship to the Assoc. as a whole.

7.       No individual team fundraising can be affiliated or held in conjunction with a Delta Lacrosse Assoc. event i.e.- Picture Day, Tournaments, etc or Delta Lacrosse Assoc. fund raising events.

8.       Teams may fundraise at their own "Home" games, provided all parties involved have been made aware- (i.e.-arena for table set up)

9.       No child will be guaranteed placement on a Team as a result of "long term" fundraising for an event to be held in a preceding year.

10.   Fundraising records and receipts must be accurately kept and submitted to the executive upon request.

11.   Non-compliance of the above outlines guidelines could jeopardize the Assoc. as a whole as we could lose our Casino Funding, which is our single most major source of Fundraising to date.

12.   The Executive is here to help in any way, but not at the expense of the Association. Any decisions made are in the best interest of all teams involved, which include Mini-Tyke to Junior B.

13.   Non-compliance of any of the above-mentioned guidelines may result in disciplinary action.
