Book a Membership

1. Term:

The 6 month plan runs for 6 months from the date of your first full monthly instalment and will automatically renew at the end of this period. If you wish to prevent this renewal, you must provide a minimum of one month's notice before the end of the initial 6 month term.

After the initial 6-month term, the membership will automatically renew for a further 6 months. Following the completion of this second 6-month period, the membership will continue on a rolling monthly basis. Once on this rolling plan, a minimum of two months’ notice is required to cancel.

2. What is included in the Plan?

Your 6-month membership plan includes the following:

• 20 classes at one of our venues, to be organised across the span of 6 months;
• One free SSS Uniform (T-shirt, shorts, & socks);
• Exclusive access to our end-of-year tournament! All details will be sent to you at the start of the Summer term, along with an RSVP form.

3. Fees:

• First Payment: The first payment will be collected automatically via Direct Debit 3–5 working days after signing up unless otherwise requested. If there are classes remaining in the month, then you will pay the pro-rata fee for these classes, as well as the payment for the starter pack.
• Date of Payments: Your monthly membership fees shall become due on the first day of each month unless agreed otherwise by us, either in writing or on the phone with one of our representatives.
• Automatic Renewal: You agree to a 6-month membership plan from the date of confirmation. At the end of the initial 6-month term, your membership will automatically renew for a further 6 months unless you give at least one month's advance notice. After completing the second 6-month term, the membership will continue on a rolling monthly basis.
• Commencement of Membership: If you enrol your child during a month, you will be charged only for the remaining lessons of that month. Your membership plan will commence on the first day of the following month.
  For example, if you enrolled on 18th January and two more classes remain in January, you will be charged for those two lessons only, and your membership will commence on the 1st of February.
• Monthly Payments & Breakdown of Costs: Membership fees are calculated to cover the cost of 20 lessons over a 6-month period, divided into 6 equal monthly instalments. You will be charged a fixed monthly fee, which applies to all months, including those with no scheduled lessons or with additional sessions arranged to balance the programme.
  As an example, each class under the 6-month plan is charged at £18.60. There are 20 classes organised across a span of 6 months. The membership fee therefore totals £371.94, divided into 6 monthly payments of £61.99.
• Rates, Discounts, & Offers: Fees depend on the number of students enrolled and/or the number of hours per week selected. Customers enrolling multiple students or selecting multiple weekly hours may be entitled to proportional discounts. Promotional offers apply only to enrolments made within the specified offer dates, and unless explicitly stated, only one offer may be applied per enrolment.
• Tournament: Our Summer Tournament is exclusive to Samba Soccer Schools members. It will take place in August, with full details sent at the start of the Summer Term. To attend the tournament, a £15 cover charge must be paid via an RSVP form. Spaces are limited and allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.

4. When can we cancel this agreement

This agreement shall be liable for immediate cancellation on the occurrence of any of the following events:

• Your child has been expelled from the soccer school for misconduct.
• The child’s parent(s), guardian, or supervisor is expelled for misconduct.

5. Termination of Membership

• Early Cancellation
  You may cancel at any time; however, cancelling before the end of your 6-month contract requires paying the remaining balance. Example: If you have completed 3 months at £61.99 per month and choose to cancel, the remaining balance of £185.97 (3 months) must be paid.
• Exceptional Circumstances
  You may request an exemption by emailing admin@sambasoccerschools.com. Decisions are made within 7 working days.
• Termination at the End of the 6-Month Term
  You may end your membership at the end of the 6-month term by giving at least one month's notice. Notice must be given by calling 020 7205 2723 or emailing admin@sambasoccerschools.com.
• Automatic Renewal
  If no notice is received before the end of the initial 6-month term, the membership renews for a second 6-month term. During this second term, one month's notice is also required to stop renewal. After the second term ends, the plan transitions to a rolling monthly membership.
• Notice Period for Rolling Memberships
  Once on a rolling monthly membership, two months’ notice is required to terminate. The notice period always includes full monthly fees. Example: If you submit notice on April 5th during the rolling period, your final payments will be May 1st and June 1st.
• Valid Cancellation Methods
  All cancellation requests must be submitted by emailing admin@sambasoccerschools.com or calling 020 7205 2723. Informing a coach or missing sessions does not count as valid notice.

7. Payout on Cancellation

You may cancel your membership at any point, provided you pay out the remaining months of your contract. For example, if you have completed 3 months of your plan at £61.99 per month and decide to cancel, you must pay the remaining 3 months’ balance of £185.97.

Exceptional circumstances may be considered. Requests must be emailed to admin@sambasoccerschools.com.

8. Refund Policy

• Cooling-Off Period: You may cancel and receive a full refund within 7 days of receiving your confirmation email. After this period, no refunds will be issued for missed sessions under any circumstances.
• Membership Renewal: If your membership renews automatically due to insufficient notice, no refunds will be provided—even if you do not attend sessions—because all sessions remain available to you.

9. Credited Sessions

1. Term:

The 12 month plan runs for 12 months from the date of your first full monthly instalment and will automatically renew at the end of this period. If you wish to prevent this renewal, you must provide a minimum of one month's notice before the end of the initial 12 month term.

After the 12 month term has ended, the membership will continue on a rolling monthly basis. Once on this rolling plan, a minimum of two months' notice is required to cancel the membership.

Your 12-month membership plan includes the following:

• 40 classes at one of our venues, to be organised across the span of 12 months;
• One free SSS Uniform (T-shirt, shorts, & socks);
• Exclusive access to our end-of-year tournament! All details will be sent to you at the start of the Summer term, along with an RSVP form.

3. Fees

• First Payment: The first payment will be collected automatically via the direct debit 3–5 working days after signing up – unless otherwise requested. If there are classes remaining in the month, then you will pay the pro-rata fee for these classes, as well as the payment for the starter pack.
• Date of Payments: Your monthly membership fees shall become due on the first day of each month unless agreed otherwise by us, either in writing or on the phone with one of our representatives.
• Automatic Renewal: You agree to a 12 month membership plan from the date of confirmation. At the end of the initial 12 month term, your membership will automatically renew unless you give at least one month's advance notice before the renewal date, either by email or phone. After the plan has renewed, the membership will continue on a rolling monthly basis.
• Commencement of Membership: If you enrol your child during a month, you will be charged only for the remaining lessons of that month. Your membership plan will commence on the first day of the following month.
  For example, suppose you enrolled on 18th January and two more classes remain in January. In that case, you will be charged for those two lessons only, and your membership will commence on the 1st of February.
• Monthly Payments & Breakdown of Costs: Membership fees are calculated to cover the cost of 40 lessons over a 12-month period, divided into 12 equal monthly instalments.
