To stay in Accordance with Health & Safety Regulations, Child to Coach Ratio and Maximum facility Capacity we are only offering the P-A-Y-P option (8.50 GBP) after the first week of coaching has finished as classes may be full. P-A-Y-P is only available if there is space in the class. (You can view how many spaces are avaible via the new registration page).
After reducing the fee to P-A-Y-P during the Autumn Seasons, we have now re-instated the initial cost of P-A-Y-P to help us maintain an effective service which is explained below.
Due to a number of factors we encourage parents to register their Soccerkids for the School terms. You are made aware of the registration benefits by reading the topic above titled, "Registration entitlements and details" . We may offer new introductory Pay-as-you-play options to first time participants as it gives these parents and children alike a couple of weeks to "see how it goes". After this period is over, parents are required to register unless extenuating circumstances are apparent which can be discussed with a member of staff.
