Health Club & Gym Membership Agreement Template (A242)

Who can use this Sports or Health Club Membership Agreement ?

Any club with feepaying members can use this sports club membership agreement template.

What is this Agreement for?

Our template contains a sample membership application form which each new member will sign. The club’s Terms and Conditions are attached in a user-friendly format..

What are the main issues?

Club membership involves a contract between the club and the consumer, and there are laws designed to protect consumers and avoid unfair contract terms. So it is important for a club to make the terms comprehensible and avoid unreasonable termination clauses etc.

So, the membership fees need to be clearly explained as well as the arrangements for renewal and termination. This can include the right for the club to terminate a membership if an individual misbehaves or fails to obey the club rules.

Members will normally agree that activities that they participate in activities at their own risk.  And usually a member will confirm that she/he is in good health and not suffering from any medical condition. Sometimes a health check will be required as a condition of membership.
