Team Entry, Payments & Additional Costs
To secure your spot at The Edinburgh International Cup, it is essential for all teams to promptly complete the registration process and submit the required entry fee. The timestamp of your registration will be recorded from the day we receive your registration fee. However, please note that team approval is not automatic; a confirmation email will be sent upon team approval. If your team is placed on the standby list, it indicates either full subscription in the age group or ongoing assessment of your registration by our team.
In the event that you choose to withdraw your team for ANY reason after approval and payment of the registration fee, the fee is non-refundable (although a credit may be considered in specific cases). If The Edinburgh International Cup does NOT approve your team or you withdraw at any point after being placed on the standby list, a refund (minus a 3.9% transaction fee) will be subject to deduction.
Each participating team is allowed a limited number of team leaders/officials. However, considering child protection, there is a cap on the number of leaders/officials permitted per team at Venues across the city. Details can be accessed on our website.
By registering a team(s) for The Edinburgh International Cup, all team leaders agree to an agreement wherein our "service" includes access to our online portal and active participation in the event.
Accommodation Fees Clause:
Teams participating in the 11v11 age categories, located 60 miles or more from the event venue or ANY team residing outside Scotland, are mandated to stay in official accommodation. Teams selecting non-official lodging will incur an extra fee of £500 per team, payable to The Edinburgh International Cup. Furthermore, teams choosing to directly approach an approved accommodation partner and opt to stay will result in the cancellation of their registration. Failure to comply with any of the above requirements will breach entry conditions, leading to potential withdrawal from the event. If you opt for daily commuting over official accommodation, formal approval must be sought from The Edinburgh Cup.
Spectator ETicket
A small fee may be set for spectators aged 16 and above (Players and children under the age of 16 and coaches enter for FREE).
The above amount not only grants entry to the event but also serves as a contribution towards supporting a large number of diverse initiatives such as accessing all entertainment activities including gaming zone, inflatables and face painting. Please check our website for more details.
Tournament Cancellation, changes and Force Majeure:
In the event that The Edinburgh Cup cannot proceed or is postponed due to circumstances beyond the control of the organisers (force majeure) or incidents not attributable to deliberate intent or severe negligence by the organisers, they cannot be held accountable for damages, expenses, or losses incurred by delegations. This includes transportation, accommodation, supplementary orders, financial losses, etc. Under such conditions, the organisers retain the right to either retain the complete registration/accommodation fee for a future tournament or refund the delegations after subtracting costs already expended on organizing the tournament that could not be recovered from third parties.
The Edinburgh Cup assumes no responsibility for injuries or economic losses resulting from war, warlike events, civil war, revolution, civil disturbances, actions by authorities, as well as strikes, lockouts, blockades, or similar incidents.
Finally, it's crucial to be aware that anticipated construction work at Peffermill Sports Village may temporarily render certain areas inaccessible. Consequently, some teams in specific age groups may be reduced in number, potentially leading to refunds and exclusion from the event. Please note that the order of removal is likely to follow the sequence of registration, pending confirmation.
We appreciate your registration for The Edinburgh International Cup 2025.
As you await confirmation from our team, please consider the parking limitations around all our venues during the Edinburgh weekend. We highly recommend using a team coach for your travel to and from the venue to mitigate any inconveniences related to parking availability.
