NextUpRecruitment (NUR) Terms of Service
Effective Date: 11/04/2025
Please read these Terms of Service carefully before engaging with any services provided by NextUpRecruitment (“NUR”). By using our services, you agree to the terms outlined below.
1. Scope of Service NextUpRecruitment (NUR) agrees to provide guidance and education to the student-athlete and their family throughout the collegiate recruiting process. This includes utilizing our internal resources and network of collegiate coaches to assist the client in connecting with potential opportunities at the collegiate level. NUR agrees to deliver these services only upon confirmation of payment and the assurance that the student-athlete complies with NCAA, NAIA, or other relevant governing body regulations.
2. No Guarantee of Scholarship NUR does not promise or guarantee the awarding of an athletic or academic scholarship to any client. Under NCAA, NAIA, and other governing body regulations, recruitment services are not permitted to offer or imply any form of guarantee regarding scholarship offers or athletic placement outcomes. Our services are designed to maximize each athlete’s exposure and provide professional guidance throughout the recruiting process. NUR is committed to promoting all athletes to the best of our abilities within the limits of collegiate recruiting regulations. However, final scholarship and recruitment decisions are made solely by the respective institutions.
3. Right to Decline Service NUR retains full discretion in determining whether a prospective client is eligible for our services. We reserve the right to reject clients who, in our professional opinion, may not benefit from our recruitment services.
4. Limitation of Liability The client agrees to waive, release, and hold harmless NUR and its representatives from any liability arising from the accuracy, disclosure, or distribution of information in connection with this agreement or any services provided. To the fullest extent permitted by law, NUR shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of the use of our services.
5. Payment Terms Clients using NUR’s placement service may opt for a payment plan, if eligible and approved. Once the payment plan begins, it is non-cancellable, and the client is obligated to complete all agreed-upon payments. Payment plan eligibility is subject to a background check. If a scheduled payment is missed, services will be suspended until all outstanding payments are brought current. Clients who fail to pay in full will be held responsible for the balance. NUR reserves the right to seek legal action or hire third-party debt collection agencies to recover any unpaid fees. The client is liable for any additional costs incurred in the collection of unpaid fees. Clients are given up to six (6) months from the initial payment to complete their full balance. All payments are non-refundable once services have commenced.
6. Late Payment Policy For clients based in the United Kingdom, NUR reserves the right to: Charge interest at 8% per annum above the Bank of England base rate on overdue invoices. Apply a late fee of £7.50 per week for each week an invoice remains unpaid. Claim statutory compensation for debt recovery costs under the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998. For clients based in the United States, NUR reserves the right to: Charge late fees and interest at the maximum rate permitted by applicable state or federal law. Suspend services until outstanding balances are paid in full.
7. Use of Client Information and Likeness By completing a recruitment form or creating a profile on any NUR platform, the client grants NUR the right to use submitted information, including imagery, video, and statistics, in promotional materials, content, or campaigns that may assist in the recruitment process.
8. Notice and Consent The client acknowledges that NUR may collect personal data, including academic, athletic, and contact information, and share it with third-party entities such as college coaches and institutions for the purpose of performing recruitment services. NUR may also use the student-athlete’s name, image, and likeness in promotional content, testimonials, and media releases that support recruitment efforts. For clients in the United Kingdom or European Union, NUR processes personal data in accordance with the UK Data Protection Act 2018 and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
9. Compliance and Eligibility The client is solely responsible for ensuring compliance with NCAA, NAIA, and other applicable governing body regulations. NUR shall not be held liable for any eligibility violations or sanctions arising from the actions of the client or third parties.
10. Client Age and Parental Consent If the client (student-athlete) is under the age of 18, a parent or legal guardian must review, sign, and accept these Terms of Service on their behalf before any services are provided.
11. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution These Terms of Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of: The State of Illinois, for clients located in the United States; and England and Wales, for clients located in the United Kingdom. Any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms shall be resolved exclusively in the courts of the applicable jurisdiction above.
