4.I accept that it is my responsibility to inform Superstar Soccer of the type and nature of the illness my child may or does have BUT acknowledge that conveying this information does not make Superstar Soccer responsible in any way shape or form for looking after my child.

The child is the parent/guardian’s responsibility who may themselves outsource this responsibility to the Childcare Centre. We will use the information provided to us in relation to any illness or condition as a guide to helping facilitate any treatment a child may need but Superstar Soccer takes no responsibility for administering any treatment, medicines or providing medical advice. The child must be always under the supervision of the parent/guardian.

PART 5: PAYMENTS POLICY

1.Payments are taken via Direct Debit – provider, EziDebit. The amount and frequency of the Direct Debit is subject to change. Any proposed change in this arrangement will be communicated to the paying member via email and in advance of this change taking place.

2.Membership can be cancelled at anytime. However to ensure you are not charged for any sessions your child does not attend you must provide written notice (via email) of your intention to cancel at least 5 calendar days before your child’s next class. For example, if your child participates in a class on Friday mornings, you must notify Superstar Soccer Management by Saturday (the previous week) at the latest in order for the next direct debit not to be charged. If notice is provided later than this, the cancellation will take place the following week. Please note that the Program is ongoing which means your child will remain on our attendance list unless we hear from you. To deregister your child please email info@superstarsoccer.com.au. Please do not leave messages for us with the Childcare staff as our Program is run independently of the Centre.

3.Dishonour Fees: For any failed payment, there is a dishonour fee of $11.95. This fee is automatically added to your next payment.

4.Missed Sessions: If written notice is provided within 24 hours of this missed session, you will be provided with a lesson credit (equal to one Session). This credit can be used upon the expiry/cancellation of your membership.

5.Wet Weather: If a session is missed due to wet weather, you will receive an email notifying you that the Session has been cancelled and a Lesson Credit will be applied to your account.

6.Chasing payments requires significant time and resourcing. If Superstar Soccer is forced to involve a Debt Collection Agency to recoup fees, an additional administration charge of $30 (to partly cover the time required to rectify) will be added to the outstanding debt.
