11 Cancellation by us

11.1

SportyPeople takes all measures as are deemed reasonably practicable to ensure it fulfils its obligations with regard to confirmed course provision.

11.2 

However, if on or before the date of the course and owing to either unforeseen circumstances, force majeure or emergency, SportyPeople shall exercise the right of absolute cancellation. In such a case, the total fees for the course shall be refunded if it is before the start date, but after the start date in that event, SportyPeople shall not be liable to pay any refund or compensation to candidates or any other person(s) in respect of the cancellation.

11.3 

If SportyPeople is rendered wholly or in part to carry out a confirmed course obligation by reason of force 

majeure, then SportyPeople will give notice and therefore be released from those obligations which can no longer be fulfilled.

11.4 

We also reserve the right to cancel the contract between us if:

11.4.1 we have insufficient numbers on courses.

11.4.2 In breach of our Code of Conduct for Children and Young people (click here).

11.4.3 one or more of the goods you ordered was listed at an incorrect price due to a typographical error or an error in the pricing information received by us from our suppliers.

12 Transfers

A candidate may transfer from one confirmed course to another upon request.

The transfer request must be received by email or a telephone call to one of our general managers and at least 1 day prior to the confirmed start date of the original course for which the candidate was enrolled.

13 Liability and Negligence

Both parties shall only be liable under this contract for losses, which are a reasonably foreseeable consequence of the relevant breach of contract

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in these terms and conditions is intended to limit any rights you might have as a consumer under applicable local law or other statutory rights that may not be excluded nor in any way to exclude or limit our liability to you for any death or personal injury resulting from our negligence. 

Neither SportyPeople, nor any person involved with the organisation of SportyPeople courses will be responsible for any losses or additional expenses incurred by any participant or their parents or guardians due to injury or sickness whilst at a sports course due to weather or any other causes beyond their control   

You will be responsible for all claims, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses suffered or incurred by us as a result of your breach or default in the discharge of your obligations

14 Emergency Procedures And Medical Details

Emergency Treatment. Upon payment of the course you give permission for SportyPeople staff to issue or obtain any medical treatment or assistance for your son/daughter if an accident or injury occurs

Upon payment of the course you also give permission in the unlikely event of any serious accident or injury for your child to be taken to a hospital; or a doctor, should the situation arise

15 Collecting your child

It is essential that parents/carers always notify a member of staff of their arrival and hand over there child to member of staff.

We must be informed if anyone other than the parent/carer or the persons mentioned as authorised to collect your child changes. You would then need to give sportypeople a password which you would have issued to the person collecting the child.

A child being collected after the session's closing time is also likely to occur from time to time. The following procedures set out action to be taken at the time and subsequently.

Once Sportypeople session time has closed parents and other responsible adult should be on the premises by this time.

If the parent or other responsible adult listed on the registration form are unable to collect the child, the parent should give details to the staff of the person who will be collecting. This must include their name, physical descriptions and any other information staff or parent may deem appropriate or a password which then be shared with the staff on duty would If your child is not collected on time, our legal liability relating to the staff/child ratio will be infringed as two members of staff must remain at the school/premises until the last child has been collected – if no school staff is on site or available to help. Any parent/carer who is late collecting their child will have to pay a charge which helps to cover the additional staffing costs incurred for this reason. 

The charge is £5 for the first 5 minutes, with an additional £5 for every 5 minutes thereafter. We take lateness very seriously as Sportypeople is only insured until the end of the session when all staff and parent/children should have vacated the premises.

An alternative if the parent/carer is late, we may hand your child to the appropriate school staff, for example teachers or reception staff, in order to wait for the named parent/carer to collect the child.

If you have made no contact to Sportypeople within 30 minutes after closing the Manager/Senior Member of staff will contact Social Services or appropriate emergency services.

Some children who are older and live nearby may be given written permission by the registered parent/carer for the child to walk home on their own. This permission must be given at the time of registering your child for the chosen course.
