FAQ's -
Q: WHAT COSTS ARE COVERED BY THE ATHLETIC DEPARTMENT?
A: The Athletic Department typically pays for items that stay with the school, such as uniforms and equipment. Uniforms are typically purchased every 2 years for Varsity, with uniforms then rotated down to the JV & Freshman teams.
Q: WHAT IS THE ATHLETIC DEPARTMENT PARTICIPATION FEE AND WHERE DO I PAY IT?
A: The SUSD high school athletic fee is $200 per sport, with a cap of $400 per student per school year. Fees are not required to try out — pay only after your daughter makes a team. Fees must be paid before the Equipment Manager will issue any school athletic equipment, and athletes cannot play in a game until the Bookstore confirms payment.
- Regular fee ($200): Pay in the Bookstore or online at https://az-scottsdale.intouchreceipting.com/. If you pay online, take your receipt to the Bookstore for processing.
- Reduced Lunch qualifiers ($50) / Free Lunch qualifiers ($25): Must be paid in the Bookstore with Nutritional Services documentation.
Participation fees can be claimed as a refundable Arizona tax credit. This payment goes to Scottsdale Unified School District toward costs such as athletic bus service and officials. The Booster Club does not receive any of these fees.
Q: DOES THE BOOSTER CLUB RECEIVE FUNDS FROM ADMISSION FEES TO VOLLEYBALL GAMES?
A: No, the Booster Club does not receive any of these fees. Admission fees are collected by the Athletic Department and turned in to SUSD. The District collects admission fees from all five SUSD high schools and re-distributes them evenly among those schools. The Athletic Department then pays the school’s AIA fees and other expenses.
Q: WHAT COSTS DOES THE BOOSTER CLUB COVER?
A: Through Booster Club Membership Fees, Sponsors, and Fundraising, the Booster Club provides financial assistance to the volleyball program for many costs not paid by the Athletic Department. This includes facility fees for open gyms, game day & tournament meals for players & coaches, backpacks, practice t-shirts, game day t-shirts, locker decorations, senior night, and the end of season awards banquet.
