Collegiate Water Polo Association Revises Car Rental Options for Officials; Budget Added to Providers

BRIDGEPORT, Pa. — The Collegiate Water Polo Association (CWPA) revises its ground transportation options for officials as of Friday, October 18, as National, Enterprise and Budget are now preferred providers.

Car Rental:  Officials traveling by air, and requiring the use of a rental car, will be compensated for the cost of one compact rental car per site. If you feel a second car is warranted, please obtain written permission from the Commissioner prior to making the reservation.  Contact office@collegiatewaterpolo.org to acquire this permission.

The Collegiate Water Polo Association will handle all travel needs for our officials through the league office. This includes car rentals for league events when required.

If you choose to make your own car rental arrangements, please recognize you must use either Enterprise, National or Budget car rental. Any other rental company must be approved by the league office. Be aware, different cities will offer varying prices between the three companies, so checking Enterprise, National & Budget to determine the lowest rates before making a final decision is advisable to officials, teams and student-athletes. Please utilize the following instructions if making your own reservations:

To receive the optimal benefit from the plans when making your own arrangements, officials are mandated to sign-up to become Emerald Club Members (https://www.nationalcar.com/offer/XZ17549) and Budget FastBreak (https://www.budget.com/en/loyalty-profile/fastbreak).

The cost differential for any upgrades to a car beyond a compact is the responsibility of the official unless approved by the league office.

Gasoline reimbursement for rental cars will be paid only if the fuel is purchased with an agency other than the rental car company and an original receipt is submitted with the car rental receipt. An exception to this rule will be made if the official does not have enough time before the flight departs to stop en route to the airport.

Mileage Reimbursement:  Officials receiving mileage are not compensated for gasoline and tolls as well. The mileage fee includes coverage for these costs at a maximum of $200.00 per weekend.  If traveling over 175 miles one-way officials should rent a car.

Multiple Site Fee:  Officials traveling from one site to another during the same weekend will be paid an additional flat fee to compensate for the inconvenience and travel costs.
