UK FOOTBALL TRIALS

1. THESE TERMS

These are the terms and conditions (the “Terms”) on which we provide the football Trial or Camp on the date and at the location you have selected (the “Trial or Camp”). Please read these Terms carefully before you confirm that you wish to take part in the Trial or Camp. If you take part in more than one Trial or Camp, these Terms shall apply to each such Trial or Camp.

If you are under 18 years of age, you may not request a place on a Trial or Camp yourself. If you wish to attend a Trial or Camp and you are under 18 years of age, your parent or legal guardian must request a place on the Trial or Camp on your behalf.

When we use the words “writing” or “written” in these Terms, this includes email.

When we use the words “you” or “your” in these Terms, this includes anybody under the age of 18 in respect of whom you are submitting a request for a place on the Trial or Camp, where applicable.

2. ABOUT US AND HOW TO CONTACT US

The Trial or Camp is run and organised by and on behalf of UK Football Trial or Camp s Limited (“we”, “us” or “our”), a company registered in England and Wales under company number 07315804. Our registered office is at The Epicentre, Haverhill, CB9 7LR

You can contact us at any time by writing to our customer service team at info@ukfootballtrials.com.

If we need to contact you, we will do so by telephone, SMS, WhatsApp, or by writing to you at the email address you provided when registering at www.ukfootballTrial or Camp s.com (our “Website”).

3. YOUR PLACE ON THE TRIAL OR CAMP

If we accept your request for a place on the Trial or Camp and your payment has been successfully processed, we will send you a confirmation email (the “Confirmation”). Our sending of the Confirmation means that we have accepted your request for a place on the Trial or Camp and a contract has come into existence between you and us on these Terms.

If we are unable to accept your request for a place on the Trial or Camp, or decide in our discretion not to do so, we will inform you in writing as soon as reasonably possible and you will not be charged.

If, after sending you the Confirmation, we decide that we do not wish for you to attend the Trial or Camp, we will inform you as soon as reasonably possible and refund any payment you have made.

4. YOUR RIGHT TO MAKE CHANGES

After you have received the Confirmation, if you wish to change the date and/or location of the Trial or Camp you wish to attend, please let us know by email at info@ukfootballtrials.com (not by text message or messaging service) as soon as possible and no later than three weeks before your Trial or Camp .

We will try to accommodate any requested change where it is reasonably possible to do so, but we do not guarantee that we will be able to make any requested change.

5. CHANGING YOUR MIND

You may change your mind about attending the Trial or Camp at any time. However, we will only be able to provide you with a refund if you inform us in writing within 14 days of the date of purchase  that you wish to cancel (the “Cancellation Period”).

If you request a refund after the Cancellation Period, we are under no obligation to refund you. However, we may, at our discretion, agree to change the date and/or location of your Trial or Camp.

You will not be entitled to a refund if the Trial or Camp has already taken place before your cancellation request is received, or if it is due to take place within 7 days of your request, even if this falls within the Cancellation Period.

You acknowledge and accept that the Trial or Camp may take place during the Cancellation Period.

Please note: refunds during the Cancellation Period for 1-day Trial or Camp s are subject to a £25 administration fee.

Please note: deposits for 5-day, 7-day & 12-day training and Trial or Camp are non-refundable outside the Cancellation Period. Where further payments have been made in addition to the deposit, any refund agreed by us may be subject to a further £100 administration fee deducted from the remaining balance.

Nothing in this clause affects any rights you may have under applicable consumer law.

6. OUR RIGHTS TO PREVENT YOU FROM PARTICIPATING IN THE TRIAL OR CAMP

We may prevent you from participating in the Trial or Camp at any time by informing you if:

• you do not make a payment to us when it is due, or if we remind you that payment is due and you still do not make payment within 2 days of our reminder;
• you do not, within a reasonable time of our request, provide us with information that is, in our reasonable opinion, necessary to allow your participation in the Trial or Camp, for example relevant medical history;
• we believe, in our discretion, that the reason for your attendance at the Trial or Camp may not be for improving and/or demonstrating your footballing ability, for example if you are attending the Trial or Camp to scout other attendees; or
• you do not comply with these Terms.

7. CONDUCT DURING THE TRIAL OR CAMP

Throughout the duration of the Trial or Camp, you must:

• comply at all times with the rules of participation explained to you by our staff;
• not misbehave, act dangerously, act disruptively, or behave in any other way that we reasonably consider unacceptable, nor encourage others to do so;
• comply with all reasonable requirements relating to your attendance at the Trial or Camp;
• obey all reasonable directions given by our staff;
• play to the best of your skill and ability at all times; and
• maintain a positive and supportive attitude towards our staff and other attendees.

If you behave in a way that, in our reasonable opinion, violates these requirements, we may ask you to leave the Trial or Camp. In such circumstances, you will not be entitled to a refund.

8. MEDICAL CONDITIONS

You must ensure that you are physically fit and able to participate in the Trial or Camp. You must inform us before the Trial or Camp of any medical condition, injury, allergy, disability, or medication requirement that may affect your participation or require our awareness.

Failure to comply with clause 8.1 may put your health at risk and may result in termination of your contract with us, subject to any provisions of these Terms that are intended to continue after termination.

If you require medical attention during the Trial or Camp, and subject to the information you have provided to us, you consent to us administering and/or arranging such treatment as may be necessary if, in the reasonable opinion of a first aid trained member of staff, this is required.

Except where any injury or medical condition is caused by our negligence, and subject to clause 11, you accept and agree that we shall not be liable for injuries sustained or medical conditions suffered as a result of your participation in the Trial or Camp.

9. PRICE AND PAYMENT

The price of the Trial or Camp (including VAT where applicable) will be the price indicated on the order page. We take reasonable care to ensure that the price of the Trial or Camp advised to you is correct.

It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some Trial or Camp s may be incorrectly priced. If we accept and process your request where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may cancel your place and refund any sums you have paid.

Payment for the Trial or Camp will be made through our payment partners, including Stripe or PayPal. By making payment through those providers, you agree to their applicable terms and conditions.

We do not store your credit or debit card details. If you experience any payment issue, please contact us as soon as possible.

10. TRAVEL, ACCOMMODATION, VISAS AND INSURANCE

You are solely responsible for arranging and paying for all travel, transport, accommodation, meals, passports, visas and any other arrangements associated with attendance at a Trial.  Accommodation and Meals are included within the camp packages only.

If the Participant requires a visa or other immigration permission in order to travel to or attend a Trial or Camp in the United Kingdom, it is your sole responsibility to obtain that visa or permission in sufficient time and to comply with all applicable immigration requirements.

We do not provide immigration advice, and we do not guarantee that any visa application will be successful. Any decision made by UK Visas and Immigration (“UKVI”) or any other immigration authority is entirely outside our control and we accept no responsibility for any refusal, delay, administrative issue or other outcome relating to a visa application.

In light of current UK immigration and visitor visa requirements, we strongly recommend that families who require a visa seek specialist immigration guidance before submitting an application.

We recommend a specialist visa support agency, including Sable, to assist families with visa applications. Any such agency is an independent third party. If you choose to use such services, you will contract with that agency directly, liaise with them directly, and pay their fees directly. Their services will be subject to their own terms and conditions, and we are not responsible for the content, quality, timing or outcome of those services.

We may from time to time arrange a preferential offer for our players with Sable or another recommended visa support agency. Any such offer, including pricing, scope of service or availability, may be changed or withdrawn by the provider at any time and does not form part of our contract with you unless we expressly state otherwise in writing.

Where a family uses Sable’s visa support service in relation to a Camp booking, and the Participant subsequently attends the Camp, we will provide that Participant with a Gold Scout Report for the Camp, ordinarily valued at £175.

Where a family uses Sable’s visa support service in relation to a Camp booking and the relevant visa application is refused, then, subject to the next paragraph, we will offer either a transfer of the booking to an alternative Camp or date, or a refund of the sums paid for that Camp booking.

Any refund or transfer in connection with a visa refusal under this clause is conditional upon you providing reasonable evidence, if requested by us, that Sable was instructed in relation to that visa application, that the visa application related to the relevant Participant and Camp booking, and that the application was refused by the relevant immigration authority.

If you choose not to use Sable’s visa support service, we will provide a standard booking confirmation letter from us for use in support of a visa application, if requested. However, if a visa application is refused in those circumstances, you will not be entitled to a refund, credit or transfer of your booking on the ground of visa refusal alone, except where such refund, credit or transfer is otherwise required by applicable law or expressly provided for elsewhere in these Terms.

We strongly recommend that you obtain appropriate travel insurance and any other insurance you consider necessary at the time of Booking. It is your responsibility to ensure that any policy provides adequate cover for visa refusal, cancellation, postponement, rearrangement, travel disruption, accommodation losses, personal accident and any other foreseeable losses connected with attendance at a Trial or Camp.

We shall not be liable for any costs, losses, expenses or damages arising from any visa refusal, visa delay or immigration decision, any failure to obtain the necessary travel documents or permissions, changes to travel arrangements, cancellation or disruption of flights, rail, coach, ferry or other transport, accommodation costs or cancellation charges, or any cancellation, postponement, rescheduling, relocation or other change to a Trial or Camp which affects your travel, visa or accommodation arrangements.

11. LOSS OR DAMAGE SUFFERED BY YOU

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

We will not be liable, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, for:

• any injury sustained or illness suffered by you or anyone accompanying you whilst travelling to, during, or after the Trial or Camp, except to the extent caused by our negligence;
• any loss of or damage to property belonging to you during the Trial or Camp, unless caused by our negligence;
• any loss of profit, loss of use, loss of opportunity, or any indirect, economic, special or consequential loss; and/or
• any loss, cost or expense arising from any cancellation, postponement, rearrangement, relocation or other change to a Trial or Camp, including but not limited to losses relating to travel, transport, flights, rail, accommodation or other travel arrangements.

You are responsible for ensuring that you have adequate insurance cover, including personal injury insurance where appropriate and travel insurance to cover changes to travel or accommodation arrangements and other unforeseen circumstances.

The provisions of this clause 11 shall continue after expiry or termination of the contract between us.

We will not be responsible for any items stolen, lost or left behind at any Trial or Camp.

12. VIDEOS AND RECORDINGS

During the Trial or Camp, we may take photographs, film, digital video, audio and other recordings of you and your performance. You agree that we may use your name, photograph, video image and likeness in perpetuity for reasonable commercial purposes without restriction and without payment of compensation or remuneration.

No cameras, mobile phone photography, video or other recording equipment may be used at the Trial or Camp other than by us, unless we have given our prior written consent. You may not photograph or record, or attempt to photograph or record, the Trial or Camp or any part of it without our prior written consent.

13. INTERMEDIARIES

If you are a registered intermediary under the regulations of any national football association, you must inform us of this when submitting your request to attend the Trial or Camp.

If you are a party to a representation contract with an intermediary who is registered with a national football association in accordance with its regulations, you must inform us of this when completing the Website registration form.

14. PERSONAL INFORMATION

We will use the information that you provide through our website in accordance with our Privacy Policy, available at: https://www.ukfootballTrial or Camp s.com/page/privacy

15. GENERAL

If you require a visa or other immigration permission to travel to or attend a Trial or Camp in the United Kingdom, it is your responsibility to ensure that you obtain that permission in sufficient time. We do not provide visitor visa invitation letters or equivalent documents unless expressly stated otherwise in writing. If you are unable to attend, you will only be entitled to a refund in accordance with these Terms.

You may invite guests (“Spectators”) to accompany you to the Trial or Camp. All Spectators must:

• not misbehave, act dangerously, disruptively, or in any other way that we reasonably consider unacceptable, nor encourage others to do so;
• obey all reasonable directions given by our staff;
• comply with all reasonable requirements; and
• not attend in any professional capacity, including but not limited to scouting other Trial or Camp participants, or for any purpose other than accompanying you.

You are responsible for the acts and omissions of any Spectator accompanying you. If a Spectator behaves in a way that, in our reasonable opinion, breaches these Terms, we may ask you, the Spectator, or both of you to leave the Trial or Camp. In such circumstances, no refund will be payable.

You acknowledge and understand that attendance at a Trial or Camp does not guarantee that you will be scouted by a football club.

If a third party requests your details following your participation in a Trial or Camp, we will use reasonable endeavours to assist in communication between you and that third party.

We may transfer our rights and obligations under these Terms to another organisation. You may only transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms to another person if we agree in writing.

We shall not be responsible for any delay or failure in performance of any part of this contract to the extent caused by fire, flood, extreme weather conditions, explosion, war, organised union or third-party labour dispute, embargo, governmental action or failure to act, acts of civil or military authority, acts of God (including pandemic), inability to secure transportation or other material facilities (including the venue for a Trial or Camp ), acts or omissions of carriers, power or telecommunications outages, computer failures, or any other cause beyond our reasonable control. If such an event continues for more than 14 days, either party may terminate this contract and, if terminated by us, we will, where reasonably possible, offer you an alternative Trial or Camp or, where that is not possible, a refund.

You must not disclose or use any information from the Trial or Camp for commercial purposes.

We may combine any data received from you during the Trial or Camp with any other data collected from you through our website, in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

No failure or delay by either party to exercise any right or remedy under this contract or by law shall constitute a waiver of that or any other right or remedy, nor shall it prevent or restrict any further exercise of that or any other right or remedy.

Each paragraph of these Terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any part is unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.

If we do not insist immediately that you do anything required under these Terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breach of contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things, and it will not prevent us from taking steps against you at a later date.

These Terms are governed by English law and both you and we agree that the courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction in relation to any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms or the Trial or Camp.

16. COPYRIGHT NOTICE

We are the owner of all copyright and other intellectual property rights (whether registered or unregistered) in these Terms. We reserve the right to fully take legal action permitted by law against any individual or entity that reproduces any part of these Terms without our consent.
