Cricket Bats Warranty
WARRANTY TERMS & CONDITIONS

All bats sold by AT Sports receive a 12 month Warranty at the discretion of the manufacturer. Replacement bats will have a maximum of 6 months warranty (from the time of replacement)
Handle, Toe, Edges, Shoulder are not covered under warranty as they are vulnerable areas and can break due to incorrect shot selection

- Use of Cheap low standard cricket balls
- Minor wear and tear doesn't constitute a warranty claim and happens to every bat over time
KNOCKING IN
Knocking in does not make it the bat match ready and the correct methods should be adhered to before taking a cricket bat into a game
Our recommendation is that a cricket bat after knocking be used in the nets against old balls and slow bowlers and slowly build from there until you're able to use new balls in practice and no seam marks are visible
If a bat is taken into a match under prepared it will void the warranty
THINGS TO REMEMBER
- A cricket bat is NOT going to look new forever & cracks will appear on the willow.
- The lifespan of a bat depends on the amount of use & the care taken for your bat (keep out of excessively warm conditions & wet weather) + We recommend that a toe guard/shoe goo should be fitted for extra protection against toe damage.
- AT Sports needs to see the product to arrange the correct course of action following a warranty claim.
- Currently there is no standard remedy for a warranty claim and the course of action depends on the circumstances. A course of action may include repair, replacement, refund or having the service performed again. Warranty assessments and decisions are at the discretion of the manufacturer.
BAT REPAIRS
Repairs do not come with any warranty as with any repair the strength of the bat will not be the same as it originally was and the repair is taken place to put in a usable condition, although we do our best to ensure the bat lasts as long as possible there is no guarantee that the bat will last 1 ball or 4 years after repair.
