FAQ'S

What's the refund policy?

14 Day Cooling Off Period
Any order can be cancelled within 14 days for a full refund as per EU regulations. Email info@thenationals.co.uk to begin the refund process

After the 14 Day Cooling Off Period - 60 days before the booked camp
Refunds can be offered at 75% between the above dates. A 25% admin fee is taken off your refund due to costs and deposits paid by The Nationals as part of your booking. 

Less than 60 days before your camp
Refunds cannot be offered less than 60 days before the start of your camp. 

You can choose to exchange for Store Credit or defer to another Nationals Camp.

Injuries sustained before the camp:

We believe that The Nationals provides such a valuable experience both on and off the pitch, that attending with an injury can still be an incredible experience for a young goalkeeper. We'd be happy to accommodate injured goalkeepers and provide a top class experience.

If you cannot make it due to an injury obtained after the 60 Day date, a Medical Doctors Note must be provided in order to recieve your refund (minus the 25% admin fee)

I'm worried about my child staying overnight

Since starting The Nationals in 2022, we've seen many young children have concerns & worries on day 1, with parents deciding to stay locally overnight just incase they get the call! We're proud that so far, every child has stayed the night, and by night 2 are absolutely loving the experience away from parents! For some, it's a huge milestone and achievement, and we make sure we recognise that. Many of the younger kids come away with a sense of pride and added confidence which is incredible to see.

If you're still worried, contact us and we'll be happy to answer any other questions to ease your concerns

What is the booking process?

When booking a place on The Nationals, you will be asked to complete a few key details before adding to your cart.

Here, you'll be asked any key information about your child, like allergies, disabilities, emergency contact number etc.

There is also the opportunity to write any additional information we should know about the attendee. Feel free to reach out to info@thenationals.co.uk for any questions or requests

What is the accommodation like?

Find everything you need to know about the venue here

Room requests

Accommodation available to us are all 2, 3 and 4 bed rooms. We ensure that keepers are roomed together in the most appropriate way. Please submit any room requests to info@thenationals.co.uk

We will do our best to room friends together. If you prefer a single room, we will try our best, however this cannot be guaranteed due to the availability of accommodation

How will different abilities be split?

We're passionate about providing an incredible coaching experience, so we'll always ensure groups sizes are kept small, with a coach:player ratio between 1:8-15.

Initially, we'll split these by age groups. However we're vigilant during the first few sessions to move players around to ensure they get the maximum benefit over the camp by matching their ability to the correct group.

I have more questions!

Head to our Parents Portal where we provide answers to even more Frequently Asked Questions.

Goalkeeper camp of the decade🔥

Being someone who attended the camp himself, the experience was 1000% better than the year before. Facilities out of this world from accommodation to pitches to even a swimming pool. Being a part of gloveglu academy, this tops off everything ive attended in my time. Coaches that are best mates off the pitch. Housemates being your new buddies in hours. Its the best environment for every goalkeeper of all ages and ability. Luckily, I was selected to be a part of Forza Training equipment testing,GloveGlu media recordings. Best camp for anyone. Highly reccomend!!!

The pre & camp information was extremely clear setting out the objectives and expectations of the...

The Haileybury College is a fantastic base with impressive facilities. The House Masters settled our nervous child and reassured us that all was well. The coaches were positive, fun and encouraging. It was a privilege to be able to watch my son doing what he loved, in a safe and supportive environment. He had the best time and had come away with an improved holistic view of goalkeeping and wants to do the week next year!

Our son loved every minute!!!

We were a little apprehensive of how he would be, being away from home for a whole week but this didn't phase him one bit.
He would tell us every evening what he did that day, the friends he's made, the food he was eating then before we had chance to ask him another question he would shout bye, I'm going now to be with my mates.
Obviously we sent him for goalkeeper training with top coaches to help him improve and we've already seen those improvements in the short time he's been away from the camp, but above all else the interactions he's had with people from various countries and friendships he has made have made the nationals not just about goalkeeping but a camp that have taught him many more life lessons which he can take forward.
Thank you!
