Court Hire Terms and Conditions

Below are the terms and conditions all users agree to when signing up to Pay2Play and accessing a booking for the VR Skellerup Hall.

1. All details provided are true and correct.
2. I am 18 or over years old or I am the above child’s legal parent or guardian.
3. I understand the pin/access number issued is my number and I cannot share it with another person. If my pin number has been compromised, I must immediately notify Pay2Play.
4. Any users who access the facilities under my booking are my responsibility. I must be present for the entire duration of a booking under my name. I will ensure appropriate use of the facilities, and I will be liable for any damages caused by myself or others accessing the building with me. Any damages will be reported immediately.
5. I will abide by the rules of Badminton Canterbury (including Code of Conduct) as advised by their website or on the noticeboards in the Hall.
6. I understand Badminton Canterbury events have priority for bookings (this includes Mainland Badminton and Badminton New Zealand). These events are usually booked in advance, and on occasion may mean the courts are unavailable for an extended period.
7. If I am the last person to exit the facility, I will ensure that lights are out, and doors shut. I agree not to wedge the front door open at any time.
8. If applying for the Affiliated Club Member rate (Tier 2), then I agree to Badminton Canterbury requesting my membership status from my nominated club and agree to that club providing my membership status to Badminton Canterbury.
9. If applying for the Weekday Saver Pass (Tier 1), I agree to the following conditions:
   • Access is available only during published off-peak periods and is subject to court availability.  Membership does not guarantee court availability and bookings and cancellations must be made in accordance with the current booking procedures
   • If unused, not refunded or credited
   • Only available to members (Hall supporter or Club Members, not available for casual users)
   • Can only book 1 court at a time
   • Maximum period that can be booked is 3 hours. Booking must be concluded by the end of the Saver Pass hours (i.e. a booking started at 3pm must be finished by 4pm)
   • Any courts booked outside of Weekday Saver Pass membership will be at the relevant standard rates
   • This is available for individuals only, not clubs or for coaching
   • Membership is not transferrable to another person.
   • Person holding the membership must be present for the entire booking time. There will be random spot checks of this and any breaches will result in instant suspension of the member.
   • In fairness to all players trying to access courts, BC’s standard 6-hour cancellation policy still applies. Any repeat no shows/late cancellations may result in that court time being charged to the member at our standard rates, or a suspension of membership.
10. I understand that money credited to my Pay2Play account is non-refundable and non-transferable.
11. Court cancellations: you need to cancel your booking with at least SIX hours’ notice, or you will be charged. Cancellations that are eligible for a refund will receive a voucher for future booking. Please note at this stage cancellations are manually authorised.
12. I understand if I do not renew my Tier 1, 2 or 3 membership (i.e. no longer a Hall Supporter) then any money in my account will automatically expire when my membership ends. It is my responsibility to know the date my membership ends.
13. I agree to ONLY play on a court with lights on. If I play on an unlit court at any time, I understand I may be billed for additional court fees, and my membership at the hall may be terminated with no notice.
14. I acknowledge that there are recording security cameras at various locations in the hall, and that Badminton Canterbury may check these at any time to ensure compliance with these terms and conditions.
15. Badminton Canterbury may revise these terms and conditions at any time. Notice of this will be published on their website and social media.
16. I understand that if any of the above conditions are breached my membership will be deactivated & I will lose any unused credit.

Will my pre paid money expire?

Unused money will sit in your account while it is current, and this is held with Pay2Play.  If you don’t renew your annual hall supporter membership, unused money will expire.  With Pay2Play, you can also pay as you go per booking, which means you don’t need to have any large amounts of money sitting in your account.

Do I have to book in advance, or can I just turn up?

We recommend bookings to make sure the courts are available for you, however you can use your phone to log in and book a court if you prefer to just come down.  Please note you need to be on Tier 1 or 2 (minimum Hall Supporter) access to be able to do this as casual users cannot open the front door without a booking.

Do all my group need to join?

No.  Only one person in your booking needs to be a member.  Each member may book a maximum of two courts.  The pin number for the door access is individual and should not be shared, and the person who has the account is responsible for the booking and use of all people accessing the hall under that booking.  So, the person making the booking needs to be at the hall for the booking and be sure to let the other players who are part of their group in the door!

Can I cancel my booking?

Bookings need at least 6 hours’ notice of cancellation or they will be charged for.  This ensures that if you no longer need a court then another user can book that time.  You can cancel through the P2P website using a computer or mobile device, or at the hall kiosk.

Can I extend my booking?

Yes just log in and you can add more courts or more time!  You can do this through your own device or at the office if there are staff on-site.

How do I top up or put money on my card?

P2P is a flexible system, you chose what suits you, either:

• Put a lump sum on your account and use it as you need, or
• pay for each specific booking at the time you make the booking via credit card or internet banking

How do I set up my account?

Simply visit Pay2Play and sign up for a free account!  If you already have a P2P account, just log in and you can either book casually at VR Skellerup Hall or request to Join if you want to take advantage of cheaper courts.

Are my details private?

BC has a privacy statement/policy with regards to collecting personal information.  This is available on our website.

Can I get rates any cheaper?

We offer a tiered scale of court rates.  It is cheaper if you play at off peak hours.  By simply paying the annual hall fee to become a Hall Supporter, you get rates cheaper (save $8 per hour peak), and if you are also a member of an affiliated BC club (they operate at many halls throughout Canterbury), then your rates are cheaper again (saving $5 per hour), combined savings of $13 per hour at peak times!

In fairness to all hall users, we do not individually negotiate rates.

What if I’m a member of a club but not the hall.  What is my rate?

You will need to be a Hall Supporter ($30 per year) to be eligible for the club member rate.  If you don’t want to be a Hall Supporter then you will be on our casual rates.

I already have a membership with Pay2Play for another facility – can’t I just use that?

You can use your existing log in with Pay2Play to book casually.  However to access either our VR Skellerup Hall Supporter rate or Club Members rate you will still need to become a member for the facility at 220 Pages Road (VR Skellerup Hall).
