Booking And Cancellation

As the session popularity grows we must have policies in place to make it easier to book and also rules in regards to cancellation.

All places on the session are currently limited to a maximum of 30 players and 3 goalies (unless specifically notified) Reservation of a space is only made by text by texting AFTER an invite text has been sent to you.

Bookings will be available on wednesdays at 8pm for PTI members & 1 hour later for non PTI members. This text is a request to book your space. Spaces go fast so book quickly.

Do NOT arrive late, persistent lateness is disrespectful to the coaches and the rest of the participants, we won’t tollerate this, for the sake of
the players, safety and ourselves.

**Kit Hirers MUST arrive no later than 1 HOUR BEFORE the session start to ensure correct kit is supplied.

Players must arrive 15-30 minutes before session start – after this time you will likely be refused the session and will still be charged (exception text no later than 1 hour before to advise – texts are not monitored near session start). No player may participate if they are not ready to go on the ice at session start. This is due to health and safety -warm up requirements. All players must warm up sufficiently on the ice before participation.

YOU WILL ONLY RECEIVE A REPLY TO ADVISE IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A PLACE.

Cancellation

You may cancel without having to pay provided you cancel by text NO LATER THAN the day before the session and receive a reply. Please note that this applies to Goalies canceling also (the fee applicable is payable as per a player). Cancel on the day and text notify us before the session, the session fee IS payable.

No Notice – No show – Some notice is better than no notice for us as organizers. If you don’t show and don’t tell us then a fine of £15 or a strike**** AND the session fee is charged. We don’t like having to charge people for this but it is very frustrating when we wait for you and you don’t turn up and often take a place that could have been filled.

Session payment – Only cash is acceptable for hockey training and matches & must be made before the session.

****strikes maybe taken in lieu of payment of the £15 no notice no attendance but once a strike is taken you cannot pay the fine if it happens again. 3 strikes ie don’t turn up WITHOUT telling us before then you are banned from all our sessions for 1 year. This we hope will filter out unreliable people.
