A clear agreement for matchday planning

Terms of Use

These Terms of Use explain the expectations for using MatchMinder, a site offering simple match-planning information for volunteer coaches of under-14 community soccer teams. By accessing or using the site, you agree to use it fairly, respectfully, and lawfully.

Publication note: The site owner or operator details and a direct contact route were not supplied for this draft. Those details must be added and verified before these terms are published.

What MatchMinder provides

An informational planning service

MatchMinder provides general ideas, explanations, and planning support for community soccer coaches. This may include guidance about lineups, player roles, substitutions, team focus, match notes, and preparation routines.

The information is a practical starting point, not a promise that a particular plan will suit every team, player, venue, competition, or match. Coaches remain responsible for applying their own judgment and following the rules and safeguarding requirements that govern their team and competition.

MatchMinder may be used without payment where the site presents information as free. Nothing on the site creates an employment, coaching, agency, partnership, or professional advisory relationship.

Use it like a good teammate

Your responsibilities

When using MatchMinder, you agree to:

  1. Use the site only for lawful, genuine planning and learning purposes connected with community soccer.
  2. Make your own decisions about player welfare, inclusion, supervision, playing time, medical needs, safeguarding, and compliance with applicable competition or club rules.
  3. Keep any information you record, copy, or share about children and other people confidential and handle it with appropriate care and permission.
  4. Not attempt to disrupt, damage, overload, probe, scrape, reverse engineer, or gain unauthorised access to the site or its underlying systems.
  5. Not use the site to harass, threaten, discriminate against, impersonate, or unlawfully target players, families, coaches, officials, clubs, or other visitors.
  6. Not copy, republish, sell, or systematically redistribute substantial parts of MatchMinder’s content except where the law permits it or the site owner has given permission.

The sensible boundaries

Content, availability, and limits

Ownership and permission

Unless stated otherwise, MatchMinder’s wording, visual presentation, branding, and original planning materials belong to the site owner or its licensors. You may view and use the material for personal, non-commercial planning, while preserving any notices that accompany it. These terms do not transfer ownership or grant permission to use the MatchMinder name or branding as your own.

Availability and changes

The site may be updated, interrupted, withdrawn, or changed without notice. Features, pages, guidance, and links may not always be complete or available. The site owner may revise these terms when the service or its practices change. The latest version displayed on this page will apply from its publication, subject to rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Fair disclaimers

MatchMinder is provided on an informational basis and, to the extent permitted by law, without a guarantee that content will be accurate, complete, current, uninterrupted, or suitable for every coaching situation. You should check important decisions against official competition rules, club policies, qualified advice, and the needs of the children in your care.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability, responsibilities, or consumer rights that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. To the extent the law permits, the site owner is not responsible for losses arising from reliance on general planning information, service interruption, or your use of the site. The site owner must complete this draft with any legally required operator details, governing-law information, and verified contact route before publication.

Ending use

You may stop using MatchMinder at any time. If your use breaches these terms or creates a risk to the site or other people, access may be restricted or ended where lawful. Provisions concerning ownership, responsible use, disclaimers, and limits of liability continue to apply where relevant after use ends.

Questions and notices

No verified email address, postal address, phone number, or other direct contact option was supplied. Before publication, the site owner must add a truthful contact route for questions about these terms and identify the responsible operator. Until then, this draft should not be treated as containing complete publisher details.
