Rayleigh CC
Membership

The unemployed membership category should apply to those who are in financial hardship such that full subscription and match fees would be too much of a burden for them to pay.

The applicant would be expected to be actively looking for work and in receipt of some form of related state benefit (such as Job Seekers Allowance or Universal Credit).

The category was removed at the 2023 AGM after a vote by the members present.

If you were in that category in 2023 you are now part of the main adult category (24 to 66), unless you are now aged 67 or more.

The consideration discussed at the AGM was that the retired have as much disposable income as many who are in their 20s and 30s and are still working.

From January 2024, the requirement from the Club is that parents set up a standing order which will cover any indoor net fees if he/she attends from January to March and to include match fees once the outdoor season starts.

If your child attends indoor nets, the cost is £35. Colt matches will be charged at £5 per match and if he/she plays 10 matches that will be an additional £50 (at £5 per match).

No. You need to set up a standing order in January to cover match fees as part of an overall package for the whole season.

This is to enable coaches to concentrate on cricket and not have to worry about collecting money from parents.

No. You need to set up a standing order in January to cover indoor net fees as part of an overall package for the whole season.

All attendees at nets will have their name recorded and this will trigger the correct payment. This change is to enable coaches to concentrate on cricket and not have to worry about collecting money from parents.

Indoor cricket training is charged at £4 per person, irrespective of adult or colt membership.

Yes. At the end of the season the Membership Secretary will check how many games a player has played and a refund issued if appropriate.

The member should logon to their internet banking app to create a standing order for the amount agreed with the Membership Secretary.

Rayleigh CC bank account sort code is 40-38-24 and account number is 31129570.

If this happens without the written agreement of the Membership Secretary, the member will not be eligible for selection until their account has been re-started.

Yes. All players are expected to pay for their subs, match fees and net fees by monthly standing order.

All players are expected to use the monthly standing order payment. However, any player may choose to pay for their whole seasons costs in January via bank transfer or cash.

Each captain will ensure that the score book is completed correctly with the full names of all players. This is then uploaded to play-cricket and the Membership Secretary records those who play each week.

The Membership Secretary has a list of all of the adult and youth matches that members play each season. This information will be used to decide the correct level of monthly standing order payment based on the membership category of each player and the relevant match fees for that category and the number of matches from the previous season or an estimate of those to be played in the coming season.

No. All players are required to set up a standing order even if it is for only a few matches each season. The Membership Secretary will help to decide the most appropriate standing order amount for each player.

No. Potential new members will be asked to decide after 2 matches if they want to join the Club. When they apply for membership they will be expected to setup the standing order immediately.
