Subscriptions Policy

NORTH WEST HOBART GRADUATES HOCKEY CLUB

Subscriptions and Remuneration Policy

 

This policy has been approved by the NWHGHC committee and is to be applied to all members from the 1s day of November 2018. Variations to this policy can only be made by submission to the NWHGHC committee and requires a majority vote to be approved.

GENERAL BACKGROUND

This policy is written to ensure that all subscription fees and remuneration is fair for all members and supports the day to day operations of the club whilst maintaining a sound financial position.

The calculation of subscription fees is described within this policy for players in all grades and provides the methodology of individual player subscriptions in cases where players are playing either as interchange players, pool players or playing regularly with more than one team.

In addition to subscription fees, this policy incorporates incentives to encourage members to contribute in the areas of coaching and officiating, along with eligible refund entitlements.

All subscriptions and remuneration covered under this policy are reviewed and set prior to the commencement of the season by the Treasurer with the support of Committee Officers as required and must be endorsed the NWHGHC Committee.

1 Standard Subscription Fee Methodologies

1.1 Regular players

1.1.1 Anyone who plays with a team for more than 75% of the games in that particular grade is deemed to be a regular player and will be invoiced full subs at the specified rate for that grade in the season in which they have played.

1.1.2 Any player having played only 50% of games will be charged 50% of the relevant grades subscription fees.

These fees will then be incremented 10% for each game up until 75% of games are played.

(e.g. on a 20 game roster if the player plays 12 games they will be charged 70% of the full subs).

1.2 Interchange players

1.2.1 Anyone who plays in one grade and fills-in, in a higher grade (other than a player playing both PL and 1st grade), and is not part of the regular playing group in that grade is deemed to be an interchange player (e.g. an under 16 player benching for 1st grade or Premier League and still playing a regular game in underage).

1.2.2 These interchange players shall be charged the subscription fee applicable for the lower grade only.

1.3 Pool players

1.3.1 Anyone who is filling in on an irregular basis in one or more teams is deemed to be a pool player. A pool player who plays more than 50% of the matches in a particular grade in a season is deemed to become a regular player.

1.3.2 Pool players who have not played more than 50% of matches in a particular grade shall be charged at the rate of the team they have played most games with, on a pro rata basis e.g. a player who has played 4 games in 3rd grade and 5 in 2nd grade shall be charged pro rata 2nd grade fees calculated as follows:

~ Total fee for grade divided by number of games multiplied by total games played for the club.

    1. Players playing 2 or more grades (who are not deemed interchange players under 1.2)
