Terms &Conditions

Please read these terms carefully before enrolling in any Mastery Football Academy program. By enrolling, you agree to be bound by these terms.

Business Identity

Soccer Life Mastery and Mastery Football Academy are the same business entity. References to either name throughout these terms refer to the same organisation operating under ABN 61 152 327 327 based in Adelaide, South Australia.

Memberships & Cancellation

Development memberships are billed quarterly (every 13 weeks). If you choose a 12-month Development membership, you pay for the 12 months upfront. After the 12 months, a Development membership continues on 13-week billing. An Elite membership continues only if you pay for another 12 months. For Development memberships, you may cancel at any time; however, if you do not cancel before your next billing cycle, you will be charged for that period. No refund is provided for failure to cancel a Development membership before a billing date. Development cancellations must be submitted through your account at masteryfootballacademy.com. Any change to an Elite membership is arranged with our team. We may change membership pricing from time to time, and we will give you at least 30 days' notice before a new price applies to your membership.

Refund Policy

Refunds are not provided for absences, change of mind, or misconduct resulting in removal from the program. If your child is unable to attend due to injury or medical reasons, credits may be applied to your account at our discretion. Holiday Clinics: clinic bookings are non-refundable once the clinic has commenced. A credit may be issued for cancellations made more than 48 hours prior to the start of the clinic.

Parent & Guardian Responsibility

Parents and guardians are responsible for ensuring their child is collected promptly at the end of each session. Mastery Football Academy accepts no responsibility for children left unattended before or after sessions. You are responsible for notifying your coach of any relevant medical conditions, injuries, or special needs prior to participation.

Buy Now Pay Later

Mastery Football Academy offers Zip, Afterpay, and Klarna as Buy Now Pay Later payment options. These services are provided by third-party providers and are subject to their own terms and conditions. By using a BNPL service, you agree to the respective provider's terms. Mastery Football Academy is not responsible for any fees, charges, or issues arising from use of third-party payment providers.

Liability Waivers

Participation in soccer and football training activities involves physical exertion and carries inherent risk of injury. By enrolling in any Mastery Football Academy program, you acknowledge that the activities are of a physical and potentially hazardous nature, including risk of serious injury or death. You agree that Mastery Football Academy, its coaches, employees, and volunteers are not liable for any injury, loss, or damage sustained during participation. This waiver applies to all programs, sessions, holiday clinics, matches, interstate travel, and academy events.

Communications Permission

By enrolling with Mastery Football Academy, you consent to receiving communications by email, SMS, and WhatsApp relating to your membership, session updates, program announcements, and academy news. You may opt out of marketing communications at any time by contacting us at info@masteryfootballacademy.com.

Photography & Media

Mastery Football Academy photographs and records video and audio at training sessions, programs and events. By registering, you consent to your child being photographed, filmed or recorded, and to that content being used by Mastery Football Academy for coaching and feedback purposes, within in-app features visible to other registered families, and in marketing and promotional material including our websites and social media channels. We will not publish a child's full name alongside their image without separate permission. If you would prefer your child not to be included, contact us at info@masteryfootballacademy.com and we will remove them from future capture and take down existing content where reasonably practicable.

Community Sharing & Carpool Matching

Mastery includes community features that share information between families. When your child's achievements are recorded — such as Mastery Star awards, juggling personal bests, or coach feedback highlights — that achievement, your child's first name, and any photo of your child that has been uploaded may be shown to other families training in the same group, and more broadly to other families joined into the community across the academy. Separately, carpool matching shows your family's confirmed suburb — never your street address — to other nearby families in your training group who are also matching, so families can arrange lifts to and from training. Both of these are on by default. You can turn either off at any time: open the account menu (tap your avatar) and go to Privacy & safety to turn off sharing to the community feed, and use the Carpool section of your Sideline panel to turn off carpool matching.

Expulsion Rights

Mastery Football Academy reserves the right to remove any participant from a session or program without refund if their behaviour is deemed unsafe, disruptive, or disrespectful to coaches, other players, or parents. This includes behaviour by parents and guardians on the sideline.

Website Terms

Use of the masteryfootballacademy.com and soccerlifemastery.com websites is subject to these terms. You must not use the website in any way that causes damage or impairment to the site or that is unlawful or harmful. We reserve the right to modify or withdraw the website at any time without notice.

We do not sell your data to third parties. For full details, please read our Privacy Policy at masteryfootballacademy.com/privacy-policy.
