- Swimmers in the Developmental Silver, Developmental Gold, and Age Group Bronze practice groups can resign with 60 days notice if they decide they do not wish to continue swimming.
- Swimmers who move away from the Hampton Roads area during the season are released from their contracts effective with their move dates. Family service hours obligation is prorated.
- All parents (except Developmental Silver parents) with swimmers in year round groups have a volunteer (service) hours obligation.
