Force Majeure Policy

Force Majeure Cancellation Refund and Credit Policy (“Force Majeure Cancellation Policy”)

In light of the Covid-19 pandemic, as declared by the World Health Organization (“WHO”), and the continuing uncertainty related to governmental, health, and other restrictions and rules that may or may not be implemented by various governmental agencies in the future, Reigning Champs Leagues (RCL), LLC and Reigning Champs LLC with their affiliates and subsidiaries, is implementing a new Force Majeure Cancellation Policy.  All Participants must acknowledge and agree to this Force Majeure Cancellation Policy as an express condition precedent to their registration in the season. RCL expends considerable resources, time and effort in preparing for each season and in order to be able to offer a 2021 Spring season, this Force Majeure Cancellation Policy is necessary to protect RCL, as well as to fully inform all Participants of the uncertainty and risks involved in registering for the  season.

For purposes of the policies herein, a “season” of RCL means and includes a “Meet and Greet” and six scheduled games.  During season preparation, RCL will schedule a makeup game date at the end of the season.  RCL may choose to modify a released season schedule to play a double header should its fields or availability to play become unavailable for any reason which is also in accordance with RCL’s weather policy. A complete season will have been played so long as four games are played and a four-game season shall constitute full and complete performance by RCL.

Excusable Delays and Force Majeure:

Any delay in the performance by RCL  of its obligations to Participant under any written agreement shall be excused when such delay in performance is due to any cause or event of any nature whatsoever beyond the reasonable control of RCL, including without limitation, any act of God; any fire, flood or weather condition; any earthquake; any epidemic or WHO declared pandemic; any act of a public enemy, war, insurrection, riot, explosion, terrorist attack or strike; or any government demand, requirement or instruction (each, a “Force Majeure”).  A delay caused by Force Majeure shall not be deemed a cancellation of the season or termination of this Agreement unless RCL, in its sole discretion, provides Participant written notice stating otherwise (the “Cancellation Notice”).  The time for performance of RCL’s obligations may be amended for the period of delay or inability to perform due to such Force Majeure, as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of RCL.  If RCL provides Participant a Cancellation Notice, the season will be cancelled and subject to the terms below.

Season Cancellation due to Force Majeure:

If a Force Majeure causes RCL to issue a Cancellation Notice to Participant cancelling the season, then the following provisions are acknowledged and agreed to by Participant:

If a season is cancelled by RCL due to a Force Majeure PRIOR to the shipment by RCL of Participant’s equipment:
100% REFUND (excluding credit card processing fees, administrative fees & donations) will be issued by RCL to Participant. If a credit was used for a portion of your division fee, that credit will be returned to your registration account and the remainder will be refunded.

If a season is cancelled by RCL due to a Force Majeure AFTER the shipment by RCL of Participant’s equipment but PRIOR to the “Meet and Greet”: 
100% REFUND (based off the division price you paid, excluding processing fees, administrative fees, & donations) will be issued by RCL to Participant. At this time, all additional merchandise ordered/shipped will not be considered for the  refund.  If a credit was used for a portion of your division fee, that credit will be returned to your registration account and the remainder will be refunded.

If a season is cancelled by RCL due to a Force Majeure AFTER the Meet and Greet, but BEFORE Game 1:

NO REFUNDS OR CREDITS WILL BE PROVIDED.

All Participants specifically acknowledge and agree that the Force Majeure Cancellation Policy is fair and reasonable, and that each Participant voluntarily accepts and agrees to the terms and conditions of the Force Majeure Cancellation Policy.  Further, Participants acknowledge and agree that a portion of their respective registration fee covers certain costs and expenses incurred by RCL to prepare and organize the season, irrespective of whether such season is completed in its entirety, in part or not at all.  Participants expressly accept and acknowledge the foregoing risks.
