FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS -

The system keeps adding my club and Hockey SA fee together?

Do not select your club membership at the same time as your Hockey SA Individual Registration Fee as this will add both registrations together, where you will be required to pay the total amount via the HockeyNet system online.

If you are at the 'Summary' screen, you can press the x next to your club registration and this will delete it from the payment total. However you will have to go in and add this later.
