Code of Conduct Enforcement:

If I do not follow the code, I may be:

  1. Issued with a verbal warning or asked to leave.
  2. Required to meet with the club officials or the County FA Welfare Officer.
  3. Obliged to undertake an FA education course.
  4. Restricted from attending future activities or matches.

Subscriptions & Payment

The club offers either a Monthly Rolling subscription model or a Full Season Commitment subscription model for payment.

Monthly Rolling Subscription Model

If you choose the Monthly Rolling subscription model, you will pay a monthly amount each month with the ability to end your subscription at the end of any monthly period.

Full Season Commitment Subscription Model

If you choose the Full Season Commitment subscription model, this will be payable monthly, so that each instalment of the total annual fee is paid monthly. The Full Season Commitment model represents a discounted rate compared to the Monthly Rolling subscription model when paid over the course of a year.

When choosing the Full Season Commitment model, you will be liable for the whole annual fee even if you wish to end the subscription before the end of the season to which it relates. This also applies to reducing the number of sessions covered by the subscription. 

Therefore, if you have committed to a Full Season Commitment subscription model for payment to cover a set number of sessions per week – you will be liable for the whole annual fee for that subscription up until the end of the season, even if you wish to reduce the number of sessions covered each week.

No partial refunds will be issued under either subscription model, and any cancellation request must be submitted before the start of the next payment cycle to avoid being charged for the following month.

Liability and safety

  1. I understand that football is a contact sport, and while safety measures are in place, injuries can occur during training or matches.
  2. The club maintains appropriate public liability insurance. However, parents are responsible for ensuring their child has adequate personal accident or injury insurance if they wish to have additional coverage.
  3. I agree that Sporting Club Merseyside, its coaches, staff, and volunteers will not be held liable for any injury, loss, or damage that may occur, expect in cases of proven negligence.
