Athletic Sub Account:
NWABA offers sub-accounts
for athletes to deposit money into for there sporting events. When the
athlete needs money for traveling, entry fees, coaching, equipment, etc,
all he/she have to do is contact the NWABA Regional Programs Director; we
will send off a check to the athletes address within seven business days
Reminder:
When sending in money to NWABA, remember to
indicate which athlete its for. It is a good idea to have your supporters
write checks to NWABA with the athletes name in the “for or memo"
line.
