SMS Terms
For everyone who signs up for the club's texts. The rest of this page is part of them.
Sporting Blue Valley texts are text messages from Blue Valley Soccer Club, Inc., doing business as Sporting Blue Valley and Sporting Blue Valley Soccer Club. By signing up you agree to these terms and to the Privacy Policy. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply HELP for help, STOP to cancel.
What the club texts
The program is called Sporting Blue Valley texts. Every text says it's from SBV or Sporting Blue Valley.
Field status
For anyone who signs up on the field status page (sbvweather.com): a program or SBV HQ closed, delayed, on the heat schedule or back on, for the programs they pick.
Club news (optional)
Only for people who tick its own box when they sign up, or later on their own page: new programs and sign-up dates. These are marketing texts. Nobody needs to agree to them to get anything else.
Staff texts
For the club's coaches, directors and team admins who turn them on in the SBV Suite: fields closed or delayed while they're coaching, coverage requests and covers, their team's games moved or cancelled, a check-in reminder an hour before a program they're coaching, a coach's invoice when it's ready, an urgent staff chat message they haven't read, and sign-in links they ask for.
How often, and what it costs
- Message frequency varies: it depends on the weather, the season and what you signed up for.
- Message and data rates may apply from your phone company. The club never charges for its texts.
- Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.
How to stop, or get help
- Reply STOP to any text (or END, CANCEL, UNSUBSCRIBE or QUIT). You get one last text saying you're stopped, and nothing more from the club's number.
- Reply START to get them again.
- Reply HELP for help, or call the SBV office at (913) 685-2872.
- You can also stop field status texts with Stop these texts on your own page (the link after your code), and staff can press Turn off texts on their Texts page.
