IMPORTANT - Player Fees

East Keswick CC wants to make sure that everyone who wants to play can afford to play, so with this in mind the club has agreed the following prices for the 2011 season. Please read the following carefully and if you have any questions or concerns please contact Andrew Hirst on: eastkeswickcc@gmail.com

Match Day Fee: (price to play per home/away game)

£5.00 (Adults in full-time work)
£3.00 (Students, unemployed)

Home Games: Optional cost of buying a tea:  £2.50

Away Games: Compulsory payment by each East Keswick player to the home team for providing a tea (whether you want one or not) : £2.50

Registration Fee: £20 (All players)

This can either be paid as a one off payment of £20, OR as many players choose to do by providing a tea (ie. sandwiches and snacks) for just ONE home game during the season. Exceptions will be made for people playing a limited number of games.

As an example of the costs....If you are a student and the game is at home it would cost you £3.00, or £5.50 with a tea. If you are a student and playing away from home you would have to pay £5.50 each week as the Wetherby Cricket League states that away teams must pay a fixed amount per team for their teas*.

The club hopes these costs are affordable for everyone who wants to play for the club. Other teams charge considerably higher prices for registration and match day fees. However, if you genuinely think you cannot afford the cost then contact the club at the e-mail address mentioned above.


*If you are wondering why you have to pay for a tea away from home, even if you don't want anything to eat, it is because in recent seasons home teams have made food for the away team only for their players to choose not to eat anything. This resulted in a waste of food, time and money. The WCL decided therefore to make each away team pay a fixed amount for the tea which works out at £25 per team, or roughly £2.50 each player)
