Last Updated: May 15, 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using Sports ARL ("the Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use the Service.
2. Description of Service
Sports ARL is an online directory that helps families discover youth sports leagues, clinics, and programs in the Arlington, Virginia area and surrounding communities. We provide information about programs and offer a Premium subscription with additional features including saved favorites, registration alerts, and advanced search filters.
3. User Accounts
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information when creating your account.
Data Use
By creating an account, you agree that Sports ARL may use your email address to send service-related communications (account updates, deadline alerts for saved leagues, subscription confirmations, etc.). You can manage email preferences in your account settings. We will never sell your personal information. See our Privacy Policy for details.
4. Premium Subscription & Payments
Sports ARL offers a Premium membership at $4.99/month. By subscribing, you agree to the following:
- Billing: Your subscription begins on the date of purchase and automatically renews each month until cancelled. By providing your payment information, you authorize Sports ARL to charge your payment method on a recurring monthly basis.
- Payment Processing: All payments are processed securely through Stripe, Inc. Sports ARL does not store your credit card or payment information on our servers. By completing a purchase, you agree to Stripe's Consumer Terms.
- Cancellation: You may cancel your subscription at any time from your account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period—you will retain access to Premium features through that date.
- Refunds: Subscription fees are non-refundable except as required by applicable law. We do not offer partial-month refunds.
- Failed Payments: If a payment fails, we may retry the charge and notify you by email. If payment cannot be collected after reasonable retry attempts, your account will be downgraded to the free plan and you will lose access to Premium features, including saved alerts and deadline notifications.
- Price Changes: We reserve the right to change subscription pricing. We will provide at least 30 days' notice before any price increase takes effect for existing subscribers.
5. Accuracy of Information
Sports ARL strives to provide accurate and up-to-date league information. However, league information is subject to change without notice, and we do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of any league details, registration dates, or pricing. Sports ARL is not responsible for missed registrations, incorrect information, or changes made by league organizers. Always confirm details directly with the league organizer before registering.
