MoF REFUND POLICY

 

Places on MoF programmes are not reserved for any player until full payment has been made. Payment in full at least one week before the beginning of the programme ensures a place is reserved (providing spaces are still available). Refunds on this payment are only considered in the instance of serious, long-term illness or injury.

 

In cases where a player has shown severe or continuing poor behaviour or attitude (including failure to comply with the players' Code of Conduct), Ministry of Football reserves the right to expel that player from the programme. In this instance, a refund will be given covering the remaining sessions minus any administrative costs incurred.
