Group Coaching Bookings

1. Booking for coaching sessions should be made online in advance at https://clubspark.lta.org.uk/SELondonTennis
2. Coaching sessions must be booked in the name of the player and are non-transferable to anyone else.
3. Places on our coaching programmes are subject to availability and are sold on a first come first served basis. We have a priority booking system for existing players on group coaching courses and the booking will open up to the public when the priority booking period has ended.
4. If a player misses a session we are unable to offer a refund, credit or make-up session unless there are exceptional circumstances e.g. an injury confirmed by a doctor’s note. Please note that classes missed due to illness as a result of Covid-19 or other pandemics or any isolation or quarantine measures as a result of these will not be refunded.
5. Players booking and attending a coaching session are assumed to be fully fit. If this is not the case, the player or their guardian must inform the coach at the outset of the lesson in advance of any medical condition or disability which may be relevant to the coaching session. This should also be recorded in advance on the player’s ClubSpark profile. We must also be notified of any change or deterioration of any such medical condition or disability. We will keep this information confidential and handle such issues with discretion. We will always try to include any such individuals within out coaching programme wherever possible. If players attend with any Covid symptoms, we reserve the right to refuse entry to the class.
6. Junior players must have on their ClubSpark profile an emergency contact number which is relevant to the time of the lesson, so that a parent or guardian may be contacted in the event of an emergency.
7. Players bringing any medical equipment to their lesson must indicate to the coach at the outset of the lesson the location of the medical equipment so it can be located quickly and easily in the event of an emergency.
8. South East London Tennis reserves the right to refuse entry onto a coaching course, or advise a more appropriate session if any participant is found not to be of the appropriate age/ability for the group.
9. If a player books onto a standalone session (such as adult cardio tennis, that session will go ahead as long as 4 players are booked onto the session. If there 3 players or less booked on, the coach taking the session will notify the players prior to the lesson that it will be cancelled and a full refund will be sent.
10. While every effort will be made to provide the coach advertised for a specific session, we reserve the right to change that coach and offer a suitable alternative coach for the session.
11. On booking a group coaching course, players will receive a booking confirmation listing the classes which have been booked. We reserve the right to amend these classes but will refund any individual classes that are cancelled.
