Club rules
1. Membership Fees
Membership £21.50 per month.
Affiliation fees are £40.00 for over 18 years, £17.80 for under 18 years.
Membership and Affiliation are non-refundable and are used to pay for the affiliation fees for the AENA. These fees will therefore be set at the level of the fee payable to the governing body.
Subscriptions are non-refundable but may be suspended in the event of injury or under other special circumstances at the discretion of the committee. It is the responsibility of each member to cancel her standing order in the event of long term illness/injury, pregnancy or upon leaving the Club.
Any member who falls one month behind with their subs shall receive a letter as a reminder and will be asked to pay within 7 days of receipt of the letter. Failure to do so may result in the suspension of the netballing activities of that member until such time as their subs are paid up to date.
The subscription shall be decided each year at the AGM.
New members
New members don’t have to pay a monthly standing order straightaway. The first practice is always free. Then, if new members want to join the club the membership fee is £24.00 per month.
2. Team Selections
Player Must:
Attend practices, apologies to be given via a member of the committee in the event of illness/holiday.
Give a high level of commitment to their tem-mates and to make themselves available for all matches in the season.
Give at least two weeks notice of unavailability for league matches except in the event of illness when every effort should be made to inform the team captain or any member of the committee before 10am to enable a replacement to be found.
Contact Team Captains to confirm away match times, venues and travel arrangements.
Be of good conduct at all times and obey the rules of the game, accept as final any decision given by an official, no matter how unfair it may seem.
