As we plan your training camp arrangements many months in advance we may occasionally have to make changes or cancel your booking and we reserve the right to do so at any time.

Changes
If we make a major change to your training camp, we will inform you as soon as reasonably possible if there is time before your departure. You will have the choice of either accepting the change of arrangements, accepting an offer of alternative travel arrangements of comparable standard from us if available or cancelling your training camp and receiving a full refund of all monies paid. In some cases we will also pay compensation (see below). These options don’t apply for minor changes. Examples of minor changes include a change of accommodation to another of the same or higher standard, or change of expert on a given day to another of a similar standard. Last-minute changes can sometimes occur during your training camp due to traffic, delays, or specific coaches not being available at the last minute. These do not come under the heading of major changes. All reasonable efforts will be made to secure similar arrangements as agreed at the time of booking. However, should the specified coach not be available for reasons out of our control on the day (eg through local strikes, illness), we will endeavour to make what we deem to be suitable alternative arrangements for you. We will not accept liability for changes in your agreed schedule due to issues out of our control.

Cancellation
We will not cancel your travel arrangements less than 12 weeks before your departure date, except for reasons of force majeure or failure by you to pay the final balance.
