Terms & Conditions

Registration

• All players (boys and girls) who express interest in joining Sporting Rugby (academy or team) will be invited to a free trial training session to help parents and players decide whether to join the club.
• Once a player decides to join, they will register online through the Sporting Rugby website, complete the registration form and pay the appropriate fee.
• Registration fees should be paid on the registration day.
• When joining the Sporting Rugby Teams, fees can be paid as a one-off payment or in two instalments (agreed with a club representative) for annual membership.
• Monthly subscription fees are paid over 12 months at the rate shown on the chosen package. Monthly payments for the Christmas and Easter breaks must be processed in full.
• If a player leaves the club voluntarily or involuntarily, all outstanding fees must be paid in full. A minimum of one month's written notice is required.

Uniforms

• When joining the club for the first time, uniforms will be provided as a gift by sponsors. In subsequent years, kit costs are the responsibility of the player's family.
• Players must wear the Sporting Rugby training uniform at all training sessions.

Code of Conduct & Disciplinary Action

• Each parent/guardian and player must abide by the Club's Code of Conduct, which must be signed upon registration.
• Should a player fail to follow a coach's instructions during a training session or game, they will receive a Yellow Card. A second Yellow Card in the following session will result in the player being unable to attend the next competition or match.
• A Red Card may be issued for severe behaviour including swearing, physical aggression, or racial comments. A Red Card results in suspension for the next tournament or two matches. Parents will always be informed.

Teams

• Coaches reserve the right to determine which team each player will play in.
• Teams (U7–U13) will be registered to play within the leagues.
• Players must attend at least one training session per week to be eligible to play in league games.
• Once registered for the season, the club's preference is that the player remains a member until the end of the season to avoid disruption to the team.

Training

• Training sessions are held based on the fee option chosen, unless otherwise advised by the club.
• Players must attend all training unless the coach has been notified of absence due to illness or other essential commitments.
• Parents, carers, and family members are not permitted inside the training ground (pitch) during training sessions.

Membership Cancellation

• Membership will be cancelled immediately if there is a severe or repetitive breach of the FA Code of Conduct or Anti-Bullying policy.
• Members wishing to cancel must communicate this to the coach or, if unavailable, the Club Secretary.
• All verbal cancellations must also be confirmed in writing by email to info@sportingrugbyfc.com.
• All outstanding fees must be received before the player leaves the club.

Football Camps — Registration

• A booking confirmation email will be sent automatically after applying, but this does not guarantee a place. Your booking is only secure once full payment has been processed.
• All applications are subject to acceptance and must comply with any specific requirements outlined on the website.
• If you do not receive a booking confirmation within 24 hours, please contact the club directly.

Football Camps — Cancellations & Refunds

• A booking may be transferred to another eligible person without charge, provided at least one week's notice is given before the camp starts.
• All football camps are subject to change due to weather, venue availability, participant numbers, or other factors beyond the club's control. A full refund will be offered if the club cancels a camp.
• Refunds will be processed within 30 days of the cancellation notice using the original payment method.
• No refund is available for a participant's non-attendance at a football camp.

Medical

All coaches are First Aiders and will always have a First Aid kit available. Should a player require medical attention, the coach will first attempt to contact the parent/guardian and alternative contacts listed before seeking further medical assistance.
