Subscription Types

Copyright © Hannah Willetts.

Membership of Hawcoat Park Sports Club is required for individuals to take part in any Section led activity. Players can be trialled by Sections without a subscription being paid, but once regular appearances are being made the necessary subscription will become due.

Non-members are welcome to participate in the social aspects of the club, and membership is not required for access to the bar. Non-members are also permitted on site if they have booked the use of a facility, or are attending an organised event. Adult members earn loyalty points for any purchase at the bar, on production of their membership card.

The prices shown below are applicable from 1st January 2019.

There is no sign-up fee for new subscriptions. Automated renewals (credit/debit card, direct debit, and BAE Systems payroll) are payable at the prevailing annual or quarterly rate, with no further administration fee being required.

All members who continue to pay manually are strongly encouraged to change to an automated payment method to help the club make better use of its limited administrative resources.

Subscription Terms and Conditions

Membership subscriptions are due in advance and are payable on acceptance, and thereafter annually or quarterly as preferred. Note that renewals become due exactly 1 year, or 3 months, as applicable, after the initial payment. The old system where all subscription renewals took place in January no longer applies.

New members who wish to pay annually are accepted on the basis that their annual subscription starts on the day when they make their first payment, and further payments become due either quarterly, or annually on the anniversary of their initial payment.

You can change your subscription type at any time via your My Account page. For example, to move from a Full subscription to a Social or Pensioner subscription. Your next subscription will automatically be charged at the correct rate.

Annual Review of Subscription Rates

Subscription rates will be adjusted on the 1st January each year, at the discretion of the Hawcoat Park Board. Where there are no other significant driving factors, the basis of any changes will be the Consumer Price Inflation (CPIH) annual percentage published by the UK Office for National Statistics in the November of the preceding year (covering October to October). CPIH is a measure of consumer price inflation, which also includes a measure of housing costs. See ONS website.

Note 2: Individuals using the club as a base for personal training/ keep fit who have no affiliation to a specific Section will be required to be a Full Member.

Note 3: Concessionary rates applicable to age ranges will be granted only on provision of dates of birth and the club will reserve the right to ask for proof if felt necessary.

Note 4: Concessionary rates applicable to age ranges are determined strictly by the members age as of 1st January in the calendar year for which the subscription applies.

Note 5: Subscriptions can be paid annually (on the anniversary of the initial payment), or quarterly (3 months after the preceding payment) if paid by an automatically recurring payment method.

Note 6: New members may join at any time, will pay the full subscription due at the prevailing rate, on an annual or quarterly basis.
