Our team works a little differently due to our relationship with the school but essentially students are not charged anything to be on the team. Students pay for the trips they attend (partially subsidized by the school) and team shirts. There is no fee, however, just for being on the team.

We function similar to a sports team at our school where students don't pay to be on the team but pay for their uniform and long distance travel expenses.

Our school is also able to provide need based financial aid in some cases.
