Terms and Conditions

These are the terms for the Home Court online coaching plan. There is no lock in contract, no minimum term and no exit fee. Most of what follows is me being clear about what you get, what I need from you, and what happens if either of us wants to stop.

Last updated 14 October 2026

1. Who this agreement is with

Liddicoat Basketball, operated by Cameron James, of Melbourne, Victoria. Referred to below as "I" or "me". You are the parent or legal guardian signing your child up, referred to as "you".

Contact: admin@liddicoatbasketball.com.au or 0422 082 792.

2. Who can sign up

You must be at least 18 and the parent or legal guardian of the player. Children cannot subscribe themselves, and the account, the payments and the group chat all sit with you.

Coaching is for players aged 7 to 17. If your child turns 18 while subscribed, we can keep going, but the child safety arrangements described on the child safety page still apply as a matter of habit and I do not intend to change them.

3. What you are buying

Home Court

  • A training plan written around your individual child, in 4-week blocks, rebuilt from their test results.
  • A private group chat that includes you, your child and me. Message me any time and I reply the same day, between 7am and 9pm.
  • At least 3 check-ins from me each week, timed around your child's club training.
  • Send a clip and get specific feedback on it.
  • Six simple skill tests at the start, repeated every 12 weeks.
  • A written progress review each month.
  • Tryout support: a Tryout Sprint in the 6 weeks before October tryouts, and a debrief afterwards.

4. What this is not

Worth being blunt, because parents get sold this a lot.

  • It is not a replacement for playing club basketball. It works alongside it.
  • It is not a selection pathway. I have no say in who any club, association or state program picks.
  • It is not a guarantee of a rep spot, a team, a scholarship or a college place. Nobody can honestly sell you that, and anyone who does is selling you something else.
  • It is not childcare or supervision. Your child trains under your supervision, not mine.

What I am selling is attention, a plan built for your kid, and somebody who notices whether the work happened.

5. Price and billing

  • Home Court is $49 a week, including GST. Prices are in Australian dollars, and the price shown on the payment page I send you is the total amount you will be charged.
  • Payment is weekly in advance. The first payment is taken when you pay through the link I send you, and then on the same day each week.
  • Payments are handled by Stripe. Your card details go to Stripe, not to me.
  • The subscription renews automatically each week until you cancel it.
  • If a payment fails, Stripe will retry it. If it keeps failing I will email you before anything stops.

The free first 4 weeks

  • A new family's first 4 weeks of coaching are free. No card is needed and nothing is charged during them.
  • Nothing starts charging by itself. Payment only starts if you decide to keep going and pay through the link I send you.
  • The free 4 weeks are offered once per player.

The progress guarantee

  • On day 1 your child films six simple skill tests that I set. They film the same six tests again at week 12, counted from the start of the free 4 weeks.
  • If 3 or more of the 6 results have not improved at week 12, and your child did at least 2 home sessions a week on average over those 12 weeks, your next 4 weeks of coaching are free.
  • Sessions are counted from what you report in your family's group chat. Weeks you paused do not count towards the 12.
  • It applies once per player. It is not a refund, and it is not a promise of selection in any team.

6. Cancelling

Cancel any time. Email me at admin@liddicoatbasketball.com.au, or tell me in your family's group chat. You do not have to give a reason and I am not going to put you through a retention conversation.

  • Cancelling stops the next payment. It does not refund the week you are currently in.
  • You keep access for the rest of the week you have already paid for.
  • There is no exit fee, no notice period and no minimum term.
  • You can come back later. I will keep the spot if I have one.

If something has genuinely gone wrong rather than you simply changing your mind, tell me. I would rather sort it out than hold onto money I have not earned.

7. What I need from you

  • Stay in the group chat. This is not optional and it is not negotiable. If you leave, the chat stops.
  • Tell me your child's real age and honest current level. A plan built on a flattering description helps nobody.
  • Tell me about injuries, medical conditions, or anything going on that affects how they train.
  • Supervise the training that happens at home or at a local court.

8. Health, fitness and injury

Basketball is a physical sport and training carries a risk of injury. By subscribing you confirm your child is fit to take part in physical activity, and that you have told me about any medical condition, injury or limitation I should know about.

I am a basketball coach. I am not a doctor, a physiotherapist, a dietitian or a strength and conditioning specialist, and nothing I give you is medical advice. If you are unsure whether your child should be doing something, ask a medical professional and I will work around whatever they tell you.

Nothing in this section takes away any right you have under Australian law, including the consumer guarantees described below.

9. Behaviour, and when I would end it

I can end the arrangement, with a refund of the unused part of the week, if a player or a parent is abusive or threatening, if the arrangement is being used for something other than coaching, or if ending it is the right thing to do for a child's safety.

I would also end it, and tell you why, if I did not think I was the right coach for your child. I would rather do that than keep taking your money.

10. Child safety

Every player here is a child, and the way that shapes how I coach is set out in full on the child safety page. That page forms part of these terms and is worth reading before you sign up rather than after.

11. Training plans and materials

The plans, drills, reviews and written material I give you stay mine. You get to use them for your own child, for as long as you like, including after you cancel.

What you cannot do is pass them around, sell them, publish them, or run them as a program for other players or a club. If you want to use something with a team, ask me and I will almost certainly say yes.

12. Clips and photos you send me

Video you send stays yours. You are giving me permission to watch it, store it and use it to coach your child. That is the whole permission.

I will not publish a clip, put it on social media or use it in any advertising unless you have given me separate written permission for that specific clip, and you can withdraw that permission at any time.

13. Your rights under Australian Consumer Law

Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies the consumer guarantees in the Australian Consumer Law, and nothing here is intended to.

Those guarantees include that services are provided with due care and skill and within a reasonable time. If I fail to meet them, you may be entitled to a remedy, and these terms do not take that away from you.

14. Changes to these terms or the price

If I change these terms, the updated version goes up here with a new date at the top.

If I change the price of your plan, you get at least 30 days notice by email, and the new price only applies from a billing period after that notice. If you do not want to pay it, cancel before then and nothing further is charged.

15. Which law applies

These terms are governed by the law of Victoria, Australia, and the courts of Victoria have jurisdiction.

Anything here you want to check?

Ask before you sign up, not after. I would rather answer the question than have you guessing.
