Learn how college sports really works. Extra Points covers the business, policy and off-the-field stories changing college sports.
Extra Points’ mission is to promote transparency and data-informed decision-making in the realm of college sports. Extra Points provides you with access to all of the information you need as a college sports fan, including updates on college sports, the AD Simulator 4000 to simulate what it is actually like to run a D-1 college team, the Extra Points Newsletter and paid subscription access to the Extra Points Library, a growing collection of over 5,000 documents from over 200 college athletic departments, as well as additional newsletters, advertising, sponsored content, affiliate offerings, and related communications (the “Services”). These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) contain the terms under which Extra Points provides its Services to you and describe how the Services may be accessed and used.
The use of the name “Extra Points”, “We” or “Us” means One Catch Zero Yards, LLC, which is the owner and operator of the Extra Points Website, the AD Simulator 4000, the Extra Points Newsletter(s), and the Extra Points Library. When We refer to “you” or “your”, We refer to either (i) you in your capacity as an individual if you purchase the Services or use our free Services directly from Extra Points, or (ii) if you purchase the Services on behalf of an Organization (defined below), “you” and “your” will refer to that Organization.
You indicate your agreement to these Terms by using the Services.
By registering an individual “User” (defined below) account or registering as an Organization (defined below) at Extra Points and using the Services, you certify that you have read, and are authorized to agree to, on your own behalf and on behalf of your Organization, to be bound to these Terms. By entering into this agreement with Extra Points you represent and warrant that you are of legal age to form a binding contract with Us. If you are under legal age to form a binding contract, then your parent, guardian or other legal representative must agree to these Terms on your behalf, and you hereby represent and warrant that they have done so. In no event shall a person less than thirteen (13) years of age create an account as an Extra Points User.
The following definitions apply to the Services:
“Content” is digital or physical media, including but not limited to electronic text, materials, video, graphics, audio or other resources which are owned or licensed for distribution by Extra Points, or curated and organized for distribution by Extra Points with a free use license.
“Organization” means a business who licenses the Services for use by individual Users who are employed by or affiliated with the Organization.
“Plan Tier” means the number of Extra Points Library documents each User may download according to the terms of their Subscription.
“User” means a person who establishes an Extra Points User account to receive the Extra Points Newsletter or purchases a subscription to the Extra Points Library. Users may also be enrolled in or receive additional Extra Points newsletters or communications as part of the Services.
“Software” is end-user software and related explanatory written materials, allowing for remote access to the Extra Points Library, including any upgrades, modified versions, updates, additions or copies. Software may be downloadable or available via the cloud.
“Subscription” means a term-based Service, which can include (i) a free subscription to the Extra Points Newsletter, and/or (ii) a purchased subscription to a specific Plan Tier of Content that may be downloaded from Extra Points Library. Subscriptions may include access to or enrollment in multiple newsletters or communications operated by Extra Points.
You agree to pay to Extra Points any fees for each Service you purchase or use, in accordance with the pricing and payment terms presented to you for that Service. Fees paid by you are non-refundable, except as provided in these Terms or when required by law.
All fees for the Services are exclusive of applicable taxes, duties, tariffs, or similar surcharges ("Taxes"). In the event that Extra Points is required to collect or pay such Taxes on your behalf, those Taxes will be added to the amount billed to you. You are responsible for paying any such Taxes, unless you provide a valid tax exemption certificate.
You acknowledge and agree that Extra Points uses a third-party payment processor, Stripe, for all credit card and banking transactions. Stripe’s consumer terms of use are available here: https://stripe.com/legal/consumer. Payments made via credit card are subject to the terms and conditions of such payment processor, as well as terms of your own banking institution or credit card provider. You hereby authorize Extra Points and its third-party payment processor to charge your credit card for all applicable fees. You agree to provide Us with accurate and timely credit card information. In the event that We are unable to charge fees to the credit card provided, and you do not provide Us with another valid credit card prior to the date on which you are due to be charged, then your ability to access and use the purchased Services will be suspended or terminated.
Each Subscription will be billed in advance on a recurring, periodic basis (each period is called a “billing cycle”). Billing cycles are annual or monthly, depending on what Subscription plan and Plan Tier you select when purchasing a Subscription. Your Subscription will automatically renew at the end of each billing cycle unless you cancel auto-renewal by logging into your User account and selecting the cancel button in your User profile. While We will be sad to see you go, you may cancel auto-renewal of your Subscription at any time, in which case your Subscription will continue until the end of that billing cycle before terminating. For renewals with an annual billing cycle we will send you an annual reminder of your subscription that includes (i) the service that is renewing annually, (ii) the frequency of the charges and (iii) the means to cancel your automatic renewal.
Extra Points may change the fees charged for the Services at any time, provided that: (a) the change will become effective only at the end of the then-current billing cycle, and (b) Extra Points will send you notification of the increase at least thirty (30) days prior to its effectiveness to the then current email address that Extra Points has on file and provide you with information about how to cancel before the fee change takes effect.
You agree to reimburse Extra Points for any costs or expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney's fees) incurred to collect any Fees or Surcharges not paid when due.
Fees payable to Extra Points shall continue to accrue during any period of Service suspension. Amounts due must be paid in full as a condition precedent to Service reactivation, which reactivation is at the sole discretion of Extra Points.

Neither these Terms nor your use of the Services grants you ownership in the Services, the Newsletter, or the Content you access through use of the Services.

THE SERVICES, INCLUDING THE CONTENT, ARE PROVIDED "AS IS", "AS AVAILABLE" AND WITH ALL FAULTS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. WE DO NOT WARRANT OR GUARANTEE THE ACCURACY, USEFULNESS OR RELIABILITY OF THE SERVICES OR CONTENT, OR THE RESULTS OF YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES. WE ALSO DO NOT WARRANT OR GUARANTEE THAT THE SERVICES OR CONTENT WILL BE AVAILABLE AT ANY PARTICULAR TIME OR LOCATION; THAT THE SERVICES OR CONTENT WILL BE SECURE, UNINTERRUPTED, AND ERROR-FREE; THAT ANY DEFECT OR ERROR WILL BE CORRECTED; OR THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE FREE OF VIRUSES AND OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS. YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES AND CONTENT WILL BE SOLELY AND ENTIRELY AT YOUR OWN RISK.
IN NO EVENT SHALL WE OR ANY OF OUR SUCCESSORS OR ASSIGNS BE LIABLE UNDER CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OF USE, LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA OR INFORMATION OF ANY KIND, OR LOSS OF BUSINESS GOODWILL OR OPPORTUNITY) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF (OR YOUR INABILITY TO USE) THE SERVICES OR CONTENT, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT WE OR ANY OF OUR SUCCESSORS OR ASSIGNS HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGES.
IN NO EVENT SHALL OUR TOTAL AND AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU AND/OR OTHERS FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF (OR YOUR INABILITY TO USE) THE SERVICES EXCEED THE GREATER OF (I) THE AMOUNTS BY PAID BY YOU TO US IN THE TWELVE MONTH PERIOD PRIOR TO SUCH CLAIM ARISING; OR (II) U.S.$100.
BECAUSE SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES OR TOTAL LIABILITY, THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN SUCH CASE, OUR TOTAL AND AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF (OR YOUR INABILITY TO USE) THE SERVICES SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
BY USING THE SERVICES AND CONTENT, YOU AGREE TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS US AND OUR EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, REPRESENTATIVES, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, DEMANDS, CAUSES OF ACTION, ACTIONS, SUITS, PROCEEDINGS, JUDGMENTS, ORDERS, DAMAGES, LIABILITIES, LOSSES, COSTS AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, REASONABLE ATTORNEYS' FEES AND LEGAL COSTS) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO ANY OF THE FOLLOWING: (I) YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES; AND/OR (II) YOUR OR YOUR USERS' (IF YOU ARE AN ORGANIZATION) VIOLATION OF THESE TERMS OR ANY APPLICABLE LAW.
In the event that your account receives a charge from Extra Points that you don't recognize or remember authorizing, you agree to first resolve the matter with Extra Points via phone or email before filing a chargeback with your bank or credit card company so that We can help you handle any billing issues and avoid mistakes that could result in the termination of the Services.
In the event of any conflict between these Terms and any other written or oral agreement between you and Extra Points, these Terms shall govern, unless expressly stated in writing in such other agreement.
User agrees that before taking any formal legal action under these Terms, User shall provide Extra Points written notice of the specific issues(s) in dispute, including reference to the relevant provision(s) of the Terms which are allegedly being breached. Within thirty (30) days after such notice, representatives of each of the parties shall hold at least one meeting (in person or by video- or tele-conference) for the purpose of attempting, in good faith, to resolve the dispute.
If the parties do not reach an agreed-upon solution within a period of 30 days from the time informal dispute resolution begins under the Initial Dispute Resolution provision then either party may initiate binding arbitration as the sole means to resolve claims, subject to the terms set forth below. Specifically, all claims arising out of or relating to these Terms (including their formation, performance, and breach), the parties' relationship with each other and/or User's use of the Services shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by JAMS in accordance with the provisions of its Streamlined Arbitration and Procedures, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class or representative actions.
The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of these Terms, including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of these Terms are void or voidable, whether a claim is subject to arbitration, and any dispute regarding the payment of JAMS administrative or arbitrator fees (including the timing of such payments and remedies for nonpayment). The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The parties agree that the arbitrator may allow the filing of dispositive motions if they are likely to efficiently resolve or narrow issues in dispute. The arbitrator's award shall be in writing and binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. No arbitration award or decision will have any preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute with anyone who is not a named party to the arbitration.
Any arbitration demand or counterclaim asserted by either party must contain sufficient information to provide fair notice to the other party of the asserting party's identity, the claims being asserted, and the factual allegations on which they are based, and the arbitrator and/or JAMS may require amendment of any demand or counterclaim that does not satisfy these requirements. The arbitrator has the right to impose sanctions in accordance with JAMS Rule 24 for any claims the arbitrator determines to be frivolous or improper (under the standard set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11).
The parties agree that JAMS has discretion to modify the amount or timing of any administrative or arbitration fees due under JAMS's Rules where it deems appropriate, provided that such modification does not increase the costs to User, and User waives any objection to such fee modification. The parties also agree that a good-faith challenge by either party to the fees imposed by JAMS does not constitute a default, waiver, or breach of these Terms while such challenge remains pending before JAMS, the arbitrator, and/or a court of competent jurisdiction.
The parties understand that, absent this mandatory provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.
Arbitration shall take place in Orange County, California.
The parties further agree that any arbitration shall be conducted in their individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and the parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis.
These terms will be governed by the laws of the State of California, without reference to conflict of law provisions.
If you have any concerns or questions about these Terms, please contact us at:
Email: [email protected]
Mailing Address: One Catch Zero Yards, LLC, 1968 S. Coast Highway #262, Laguna Beach, CA 92651
We reserve the right to terminate or suspend your access to the Services at any time for any reason, including for violation of these Terms. Upon a User’s cancellation of the automatic renewal of a Subscription, your Subscription will not automatically renew at the next renewal date and your access to the Services will terminate at the end of your existing subscription term. If you cancel an annual Subscription that is being billed monthly, your payment method will be charged for the remaining payments due on the established billing cycle. You will have full access to the Services subject to the Subscription until the end of your existing subscription term.
