Terms & Conditions

Cricsmart Cricket Academy, Terms and Conditions at Tarneit Rise Primary School

​

Make-Up & Cancellation Policy
If you are unable to attend a session due to illness or school camp etc. you must notify your coach prior to your lesson in order to arrange a make-up lesson. Lessons will only be made up if your Cricsmart coach is notified with sufficient time prior to the start of your lesson (preferred 24 hours prior). Notification of absence or arrangement of a make-up can be made directly with your coach.

Please be considerate that the late cancellation of sessions leads to inefficient time use for our team & therefore lost opportunities for others. This policy is to deter people from preventing those clients who are seeking a coaching session, missing an opportunity to see one of the coaches.

All missed sessions will need to be made up during the same term or following term within the same calendar year.

Wet Weather & Heat Policy Communications
Where possible your coach will contact you via phone message or email to let you know if your session(s) will be cancelled due to wet weather or heat policy. If you do not get a call, text or email, please presume the lesson is going ahead as normal. Cricsmart have a policy for all coaches to avoid the use of Mobile Phones while on court coaching where possible to make sure our attention is directed to the current lesson at all times. If your coach does not answer their phone, they are more than likely on court coaching.

When the temperature reaches 37 degrees and over at your cricket venue, all coaching sessions will be suspended until the temperature drops. Please be aware the temperature will be taken at the individual venue and your safety is our primary concern.

Late Fees
Any late payments, more than 30 days past the invoice date, shall attract a late payment penalty fee as set down by the Penalty Interest Act 1983.

Privacy Policy

Photography & Video Images
I acknowledge that Cricsmart may film, use video analysis and photography during programs, lessons and events.

Parental Involvement
Cricsmart supports Cricket Australia’s stance and efforts in helping educate parents on their important role within the child’s sporting journey. The following are some ideas and education that we would like you, the parent, to be aware of.

Cricsmart encourages all parents to remain off the nets during their child’s lesson. This enables both the coach and student/s to concentrate entirely on the lesson, create independence for the child, promote a child’s decision making skills and build the coach – student relationship.

As a parent / guardian of a participant in any activity held / run by Cricsmart you agree to try and meet the following requirements in regard to your conduct during any such activity, program or event to the best of your abilities:

- Treat your child the same irrespective of them winning or losing
- Remember that your child plays for their enjoyment not yours
- Try to have fun when you are around your children at competitions and training. - Well-directed humour can be a great de-stressor
- Look relaxed, calm and positive on the sidelines
- Make friends with other parents at competitions
- Get involved in appropriate ways if your child or the coach behaves in unacceptable ways during competitions
- Let the coach do the coaching
- Understand that children will benefit from a break sometimes and that involvement in other sports is okay
- Be there when the child performs poorly. Be an understanding listener rather than a critic, judge and/or fixer
- Be prepared to give your child some space so that he/she can grow and develop as an independent person
- Let your child know that your love for them is not associated with their sporting performances
- Communicate with your child and ask them how they are really feeling about their sport and about competing in particular
- Occasionally let your child compete without you being there and hovering over them
- Emphasise the good things your child did in preparing for and during the match/tournament
