1. Website Terms and Conditions

By using our Site, you accept these Terms. If you do not agree to them, you must not use our Site.

  • Our Privacy Policy also applies to your use of the Site.

  • We may update or amend these Terms or our Site at any time without prior notice.

  • All intellectual property rights on our Site are owned or licensed by us. You may not reproduce, copy, or redistribute any content without permission.

  • The content provided is for general information purposes and should not be relied upon as professional advice.

  • We are not responsible for websites linked from our Site.


2. One Tournament CIC as an Agent / Marketplace

  • One Tournament CIC acts as an agent and marketplace for independent third-party tournament organisers (the “Vendors”).

  • Current Vendors include (but are not limited to): Vendor A, Vendor B, and Vendor C.

  • Each Vendor is solely responsible for the organisation, management, and delivery of its tournaments.

  • When you make a booking through our platform, your contract for participation is with the Vendor, not with One Tournament CIC.

  • We facilitate bookings and process payments through Stripe, retaining a service fee/commission. The balance of funds is remitted to the Vendor who operates the event.


3. VAT and Taxes

  • One Tournament CIC charges VAT only on our commission or service fees where applicable.

  • Vendors are responsible for accounting for VAT or other local taxes on their tournament entry fees, accommodation, and related services.

  • Vendors who are not VAT-registered do not charge VAT; those who are VAT-registered must comply with UK VAT laws and HMRC guidance.

  • For international bookings, additional taxes or import duties may apply and are the responsibility of the travelling team or Vendor.


4. Tournament Booking Terms

  • Tournament bookings must be made via our official Site.

  • Confirmation is only valid once full payment is received and processed through Stripe.

  • Each tournament may have specific rules or entry conditions set by the Vendor, which form part of your agreement.

  • Refunds and cancellations are governed by the Vendor’s refund policy, which will be communicated at the time of booking.

  • One Tournament CIC will assist in facilitating communication, but cannot authorise or issue refunds on behalf of the Vendor.

Insurance & Safety

  • Vendors must maintain appropriate public liability insurance and ensure compliance with FA safeguarding standards.

  • One Tournament CIC carries its own business insurance but is not responsible for operational or on-site liabilities related to Vendor-run tournaments.


5. Accommodation & Package Bookings

  • When you book accommodation, meals, or tour packages via the Site, One Tournament CIC acts as an agent on behalf of the relevant Vendor or service provider.

  • The Vendor or service provider is responsible for all aspects of delivery, including accommodation, catering, and hospitality arrangements.

  • The contract for accommodation, food packages, or tour experiences is between you and the Vendor, not One Tournament CIC.

  • One Tournament CIC’s role is limited to facilitating the booking and processing payments through our Stripe platform.

Applicable Supplier Terms

  • In some cases, accommodation may be arranged through approved providers such as Warwick University Training Limited (Warwick Conferences) or equivalent hotels and venues used by our Vendors.

  • Where this applies, the terms and conditions of that accommodation provider will also apply to your stay and take precedence over any conflicting provisions here.

  • All participants and guests must comply with the accommodation provider’s health and safety rules, check-in/check-out policies, and behaviour codes.

Payment and VAT

  • The total price of your package will be displayed at checkout.

  • VAT will be charged where applicable, depending on the Vendor’s VAT registration status and the services included in your booking.

  • One Tournament CIC charges VAT only on our agency commission; the Vendor is responsible for VAT on the remainder of the package price where applicable.

Amendments, Cancellations, and Refunds

  • Any changes or cancellations to your accommodation or package booking are subject to the Vendor’s policy and the accommodation provider’s terms.

  • One Tournament CIC will assist in facilitating communications between you and the Vendor but cannot authorise refunds or amendments on behalf of the Vendor.

  • Refunds (if approved) will be processed via Stripe to the original payment method, subject to applicable processing fees.

Responsibility of Vendors and Guests

  • Vendors are responsible for ensuring that accommodation allocations and meal plans are correctly managed.

  • Guests are responsible for any damage to accommodation, loss of keys, or breaches of hotel or venue rules.

  • One Tournament CIC is not liable for the failure of third-party suppliers or any act, omission, or default by the accommodation provider.


6. Liability

  • Vendors are solely responsible for the safe delivery of their tournaments, including safeguarding, referees, facilities, and compliance with FA and local regulations.

  • One Tournament CIC is not liable for:

    • injuries, losses, or damages occurring at Vendor tournaments,

    • postponements, cancellations, or changes made by Vendors,

    • any act or omission by third-party suppliers or accommodation providers.

  • Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any liability which cannot be excluded under UK law.


7. International Teams

  • Teams travelling from outside the UK are responsible for their own visas, travel documents, and compliance with entry requirements.

  • One Tournament CIC and Vendors may issue invitation letters to support visa applications but cannot guarantee approval.

  • Teams are advised to take out appropriate travel insurance covering medical expenses, cancellation, and personal belongings.


8. Data Protection & Privacy

  • One Tournament CIC complies with the UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018.

  • We collect and process data necessary to manage bookings and payments.

  • Payment information is securely processed through Stripe and is never stored by us.

  • For full details, see our Privacy Policy.
