Little Boomers Basketball — Terms and Conditions

1. Participation and Liability

By completing enrolment, you authorise your child’s participation in all activities of the Little Boomers Basketball program.

Physical activity involves inherent risks, including but not limited to falls, collisions, sprains, strains, muscular injuries, and other injuries associated with running, jumping, and ball sport activities. You acknowledge these risks and accept responsibility for your child’s voluntary participation.

Little Boomers Basketball takes all reasonable steps to ensure the safety of all participants.

WARNING — NEW SOUTH WALES

Under the Civil Liability Act 2002 (NSW), Little Boomers Basketball provides recreational services. Section 5M of that Act provides that a defendant is not liable in negligence for harm suffered by a plaintiff as a result of the materialisation of an obvious risk of a dangerous recreational activity engaged in by the plaintiff. By proceeding with enrolment at a New South Wales location, you acknowledge that you have received and understood this warning.

WARNING — QUEENSLAND

Under the Civil Liability Act 2003 (QLD), recreational services are provided subject to a risk warning. Little Boomers Basketball programs constitute a recreational activity within the meaning of section 18 of that Act. Risks include falls, collisions, physical injury, and other risks inherent in ball sport activities. By proceeding with enrolment at a Queensland location, you acknowledge that you have received and understood this warning.

To the extent permitted by law (including the Civil Liability Act 2002 (NSW) and Civil Liability Act 2003 (QLD)), Little Boomers Basketball excludes liability for any injury, illness, loss, or damage arising from participation in its programs, except where such liability arises from our negligence or a breach of a consumer guarantee under the Australian Consumer Law.

Little Boomers Basketball is not responsible for loss or damage to personal property at any venue.

Any medical conditions, allergies, or physical limitations relevant to your child’s participation must be disclosed to Little Boomers Basketball prior to enrolment.

2. Refunds and Change of Mind

Little Boomers Basketball does not offer refunds for change of mind after a booking is confirmed, or where a change in personal schedule prevents attendance.

Nothing in these terms limits or excludes your rights under the Australian Consumer Law. Where Little Boomers Basketball fails to meet a consumer guarantee — including where a service is not provided with due care and skill, is not fit for purpose, or does not match its description — you may be entitled to a remedy including a refund.

Where Little Boomers Basketball cancels or makes a significant change to a program and an acceptable alternative cannot be provided, a full refund or credit will be offered at the parent or guardian’s election.

3. Registration and Payment

Enrolment is confirmed upon receipt of full payment. Placement in a program cannot be guaranteed until payment is completed.

Where a voucher or promotional code is applied at checkout and validation fails, the outstanding balance must be paid to secure the enrolment. Little Boomers Basketball is not responsible for vouchers that are expired, invalid, or issued by third parties.

4. Credits

Where a child is unable to continue in a program, an account credit may be applied to:

• a sibling’s enrolment at the same location; or
• a Little Boomers Basketball holiday camp at the same location.

Credits are not transferable between franchise locations and are not redeemable for cash, except as set out below.

Where a Little Boomers Basketball location permanently ceases to operate, any unused credits held at that location may be transferred to an alternative Little Boomers Basketball location of your choice. Where no alternative location is accessible to you, a refund of the unused credit balance will be provided.

5. Makeup Classes

Makeup classes are available subject to the following conditions:

• Makeup classes are available for absences due to illness or injury only — not for scheduling conflicts or other reasons.
• A maximum of two makeup classes may be granted per term.
• Makeup classes must be completed within the same region where the child is enrolled and cannot be carried over to the following term.
• Makeup classes are subject to availability and must be arranged in advance.
• Where a child has been absent due to illness or injury for three or more consecutive weeks, their enrolment will be deferred to the following term and a credit for the unused weeks will be applied to that term’s enrolment.

6. Venue Changes

Little Boomers Basketball operates across multiple venues. In the event a venue cancels a booking or becomes unavailable, we will make every reasonable effort to secure a suitable alternative nearby location or extend the program term accordingly.

Where no suitable alternative can be arranged, a full refund or credit will be provided.

Parents and guardians will be notified of venue changes by email, SMS, and where possible, by phone.

7. School-Based Locations

Certain program locations held at schools may be restricted to students enrolled at that school. Where a child is ineligible for a school-based location, Little Boomers Basketball will offer an alternative location where available.

8. Equipment

New participants are required to purchase a Little Boomers Basketball training kit upon enrolment. The cost of the training kit is disclosed at the time of booking. The kit is a one-off purchase and is not required for re-enrolments unless a replacement is needed.

9. Photography and Video

Little Boomers Basketball may photograph or record video of participants during sessions. Images and footage may be used on our website, our social media channels (including Instagram and Facebook), and in marketing and promotional materials.

If you do not consent to your child’s image being used for these purposes, you must notify Little Boomers Basketball in writing before the program commences. Written notification should be sent to your local coordinator or to head office using the contact details provided at enrolment.

You may withdraw consent at any time by contacting us in writing. We will not use new images of your child following receipt of your written withdrawal. Images already published prior to withdrawal cannot be removed from all platforms retroactively, but we will make reasonable efforts to do so upon request.

10. Supervision

A parent or guardian must remain at the venue for the duration of the program. Little Boomers Basketball coaches are responsible for conducting the session only and are not responsible for the general supervision or care of children outside of session activities.

11. Privacy

Personal information collected during enrolment is handled in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles. We collect personal information for the purposes of administering enrolments and communicating with you about the program. We will not share your personal information with third parties except as required for the operation of the program or as required by law.

Our full Privacy Policy is available at littleboomersbasketball.com.au/privacy-policy

12. General

These terms are governed by the laws of the state in which your child is enrolled (New South Wales or Queensland, as applicable).

Little Boomers Basketball reserves the right to update these terms from time to time. Updated terms will be published on our website and will apply to enrolments made after the date of publication.

If any provision of these terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in full force.

Acknowledgement

By completing enrolment, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to these Terms and Conditions, including the recreational activity warnings applicable to your state.
