Fees & Funding
Annual membership fees are set at the club AGM, the fees go towards funding capital equipment (balls, outdoor nets and posts, scoreboards etc etc), coach and referee registration, funding for club officers to attend courses, Volleyball England affiliation and other costs which the club as a whole incurs.
The club offers a 33% discount on these rates for students and the unwaged.
Players representing the Club in any of our competitive teams are expected to become members.
Payment is required to attend our training sessions and play in matches. A scale of monthly paid fees is in place which covers match and training costs for various playing and training options, we encourage members to setup a monthly standing order to pay these fees.
Club fees are set in line with the clubs principle of being a non-profit making organisation and as such none of the officers or coaches receives payment. However the club does recognise and highly values the contribution that volunteers make to the successful running of the club so all committee members and regular session coaches are exempt from membership fees.
The Treasurer and club committee continually explore ways in which fees can be kept to a minimum by negotiating to get the best rates possible from the venues we use and wherever possible combining fixtures.
In the past the club has been successful in obtaining grants from the local sports council and has also secured numerous sponsorship deals.
