Disciplinary: The agreement can be terminated by NLP Sports with immediate effect for gross misconduct by the beneficiary following an investigation if the beneficiary is deemed to have broken the terms of the agreement and rules of operation i.e. going AWOL for a maximum of 7 days without written consent on more than one occasion.
Exit strategies: Should the beneficiary wish to end this agreement anytime prior to end of the agreement, they must do so in writing. This option means the agreement ends with immediate effect and the beneficiary will no longer be entitled to receive the benefits of this agreement. If the beneficiary leaves their post anytime before the end date of their agreement they will not be entitled to any benefits under this agreement, up to and including expenses reimbursement.
Relationship between both parties: The beneficiaries relationship with NLP Sports will be that of an independent member and nothing in this agreement is intended to or should be constructed to create a partnership, agency or employment relationship. The beneficiary will not be entitled under this agreement to any of the benefits that NLP Sports may make available to its employees, including but not limited to liability insurance, profit-sharing, retirement benefits, paid vacation, holidays or sick leave or workers compensation insurance.
Ownership of property and materials: The beneficiary acknowledges and agrees that any and all documents produced by the beneficiary, including but not limited to memoranda, research notes, correspondence, emails, pleadings, and reports during the course of their participation for the client, shall be the sole property of the football academy and the beneficiary shall retain no ownership, interests or rights therein. Beneficiary agrees any media i.e. pictures and videos created during sessions may be used by NLP Sports for promotional purposes.
Training Ground: Please note we utilise grass, Astroturf, and indoor venues for training. Full address will be sent by whats-app group admins upon your registration. We also ask that parents respect the coaches by keeping a safe distance outside of the marked pitches, do not run onto training sessions for any reason, or interfere with coaching sessions and matches
Safeguarding: Any form of physical, verbal abuse or bullying towards staff, parents, and players will not be tolerated. If you are a parent or a child and believe you have witnessed an incident, due to sensitivity please do not communicate or address any safeguarding issues publicly, and report it to one of the coaches right away who will investigate promptly. Any deliberate abuse or bullying will be dealt with internally. Please remember as a member of the academy we all have a duty of care to uphold to each other.
Covid 19 Guidelines: If you are showing any Covid symptoms please follow the NHS guidelines, and do not attend until recovered to avoid any potential spread:
