Pay for hockey by standing order
Matt Berry
11th of June, 2010

Pay for your hockey next season by bank standing order.

I am now in a position to confirm the costs for next season of paying for all hockey, i.e. subs and match fees combined, by monthly standing order - the total amounts payable if paying are:

Senior
Student
Total to pay for the season
£244
£130
Equates to
£100 subs + 18 games @ £8 match fee
£40 subs + 18 games @ £5 match fee

As always, the Club will consider, without prejudice, any requests from members who may struggle to pay these amounts, and firmly believes that anybody who wants to play hockey should be able to do so.If you wish to be considered for reduced fees then please contact Stuart Forrest (stuart.forrest@rotherhamhc.org.uk or 01709 367059) or myself (matt.berry@rotherhamhc.org.uk or 07877 904224).

How much you will need to pay each month depends on when your payments begin. As the season ends on the 30th April 2011, all money must have been paid by that date.

To avoid a bigger initial payment, you will need to have started paying by the end of July to ensure that sufficent money will have been paid by 31st October to cover annual subs. This will mean that monthly payments will be as follows:
Payments begin:
Senior
Student
June 2010 11 x £22.18
11 x £11.82
July 2010
10 x £24.40
10 x £13.00

It will be possible to begin paying after July, but this would result in a larger first monthly payment to `catch up` with other standing order payers, i.e.:

Payments begin:
Senior
Senior

Student
Student

1st payment
Additional payments

1st payment Additional payments
August 2010
1 x £50
8 x £24.25

1 x £20
8 x £13.75
September 2010
1 x £75
7 x £24.15

1 x £30
7 x £14.29

I would strongly advise you to seriously consider signing up to this payment method for the following reasons:
  • your hockey is paid for before playing on a Saturday
  • you can spread the cost of hockey over 12 months of the year
  • you get a head-start over other members, as your subs will be fully paid up at the start of the season
  • any games you play after your 18th match of the season will be free (most teams have between 22 and 28 games in a season)
If you want to sign up to paying by standing order, there are two ways of doing this:
1) if you have online banking you will most likely be able to set up the standing order online (it took me 2 minutes with my bank), or
2) if you don`t have online banking you will need to send in a paper form to your bank. I have pro-forma copies of the form you will need to send.

Just send me an e-mail (matt.berry@rotherhamhc.org.uk) or call/text me (07877 904224) for the Rotherham account details. Please include your mobile phone number on the request if possible and whether you have online banking - I will then text you back with the account number and sort-code (for security reasons I don`t want to put these details on this e-mail).

If you require further information about this system then please feel free to contact me on the e-mail address or phone number mentioned above.
