Medway Rugby Football Club operates a strict ‘Don’t Pay – No Play’ policy.
With these uncertain times, never has your club needed your support more.
MRFC Exec will accordingly propose at the next AGM (targeted for 11/Aug) that all fees for the 2020-2021 season remain unchanged from the 2019-2020 season.
Club membership runs from 1st August until 31st July (see note 1) and is the sum of the Club/Family Membership PLUS any relevant Playing Fees. See the examples link below.
| Club/Family Membership | 2019-20 Full Season Fees |
2019-20 Increases |
| Club membership for playing families | £88 (see note 2A) | £3 |
| Club membership for non-playing adults | £63 (see note 2B) | £3 |
| VPA Membership | £192 per annum / £16.00 per month (see note 5) | £6 pa / £0.50 pcm |
| Additional playing fees | 2019-2020 Full Season Fees |
2019-20 Increases |
| Minis (under 6) | £20 (see note 3) | Nil |
| Minis (under 7 to through to and including under 11) | £40 (see note 3) | Nil |
| Youth (under 12 through to and including under 18) | £60 (see note 3) | Nil |
| Adult discounted rate for men and women who are full time students or apprentices | £60 (see note 4) | Nil |
| Adult full rate for Men | £140 | Nil |
| Adult full rate for Women | £100 | Nil |
Note 1: For those joining the Club after 31 December each season, the membership and playing fees are half what would normally be due in a full season
Note 2A: Family membership includes the lead person’s partner and any of their children under 18 years of age as at the start of the season (1 September ). Anyone over 18 at the start of the season is expected to join the club in their own right.
Note 2B: This reduced fee for Social Membership has been introduced as a pilot to encourage retention of parents when their children stop playing. The membership excludes the lead person’s partner and their children. Note that this price is per adult, so if a family with 2 parents both wish to remain members after their children stop playing, then the family club membership would be more cost effective for them.
Note 3: Families with more than two players in the Youth and/or Mini sections only pay for the eldest two playing children (U5s-U18s)
Note 4: Those paying the discounted rate must evidence their eligibility for the discount to their respective team manager.
