TERMS
AND CONDITIONS
* The group size must not exceed 12
persons for ski lessons and 8 persons for snowboarding
lessons. Bookings will be accepted subject to availability.
* A group must consist of members all
at the same ability or level. In the case of beginners,
if a student misses the first lesson it is not possible
for them to join part way through a series of lessons.
Skiers/snowboarders and non-skiers/non-snowboarders
must not be mixed in any one group situation. However
should this occur then we reserve the right to charge
an additional fee for those individuals not requiring
tuition, this is charged at normal recreational rates.
* All tuition is provided by Southampton
Alpine instructors.
* It is possible for one member of the
supervisory school staff to join in with their group
providing they stay with the group – this may take
place only if there is sufficient space in the lesson.
* Schools are reminded that a teacher
must accompany a school group. It is requested that
a female teacher accompany a group that includes girls.
* Centre staff must be notified of any
individual whose health may be affected due to taking
part in activities provided by the Centre, e.g. Asthma,
epilepsy, diabetes, heart or lung conditions or pregnancy.
* Payment must be made in advance, unless
an arrangement to invoice has been made. When paying
by cheque please ensure it is payable to Southampton
Alpine Centre.
* Charges are based upon a group rate.
* Although all necessary equipment is
supplied to the individual (boots, skis, boards, pads
and poles), they will need to provide suitable clothing
for the session.
This should be long socks, waterproof
or warm clothing with long sleeves and long trousers.
Tough gloves or mitts and not woollen or finger-less
gloves are required, as a protective measure, due to
the abrasive nature of the dry slope surface.
Correct clothing is still essential during the warmer
summer months.
Please ensure that your groups are aware
of the clothing regulations. In order to maintain safety
we reserve the right to restrict your group members
activities if, in our opinion, they are not suitably
clothed.
* Your signature will be required on your
booking form as confirmation of having read and agree
to abide by these regulations.
* Please ensure that you arrive 30 minutes
prior to the start of the first lesson and 20 minutes
before each following lesson, to allow time for equipment
issue. We will require the height, weight and shoe size
of the pupils.
* Please note: Cancellation of lessons
(i) Refunds require a minimum of
eight days
notice in writing. An admin charge will be made.
(ii) Southampton Alpine Centre reserves the right to
cancel lessons at a moments notice and will attempt
to offer other alternatives.
It is possible for students to train for
Snowsports awards, if requested. A logbook is available
with 9 different levels which can be purchased at £2.50
and worked through with the instructor. Badges can then
be sent off for with a small additional fee.
