Are Junior Coaching sessions refundable?

Junior Coaching sessions are non-refundable. Please refer to our terms and conditions for more information.

How does the early camp booking access work for dry side holiday camps?

Direct Debit members will receive priority booking via email before camps are released to the general public, allowing them to secure spaces in advance.

How does the free access to recreational racquet sports and outdoor football work?

Customers can book a racquet sports court or outdoor football session by calling or visiting the centre. Booking in advance is recommended, as this benefit is subject to availability.

This offering is available during weekends and holiday periods, and access is subject to availability. Children under the age of eight must have an adult present on site at all times when using these facilities. This offer is available during weekends and holiday periods only.

Can I pay by cash or card?

Customers who joined the programme before the summer of 2026 can continue using a legacy payment option, which allows payment by cash or card through the four scheduled payment periods each year. Ask at the reception of the venue you’re using. However, if you don’t make the payment deadlines you will lose your child’s place in the programme.
