Additionally, entry fees may also be moved to another CSE tournament dollar for dollar.

Teams who desire to withdraw from a CSE event, and are eligible for a refund (based upon above criteria) must do so in writing via email.  The email must come from the head coach or team contact who registered the team for the event.  Texts and or verbal messages do not qualify as an official withdrawal thus no refund will be issued.
