Annual membership to the CSFC is a requirement for all players who want to play in competitive matches for the Club.
Previous arrangements
In previous seasons the club has been funded through two membership channels.
The Civil Service Sports Council (CSSC) pays the club a grant based on the number of CSSC members in the club. Each CSSC member pays £42 a year direct to CSSC.
Non CSSC members pay a membership fee direct to the club. Last season this was £70.
New arrangements
From this season onwards we are adopting a new approach in line with changes to the CSSC membership:
All CSFC members will pay £28 to the club.
All CSFC members who are also CSSC members will continue to pay their CSSC fees direct to the CSSC.
All non CSSC members will pay £42 to have linked membership to the CSSC (the club will arrange for existing CSSC members to provide the linked membership).
Benefits
This approach means we will have more CSSC members in the club.
It also ensures that all members of the club pay the same total amount each year.
It will provide all Linked members access to CSSC venues/discounts etc.
It will ensure the club is on a sound financial footing particularly as we face the rental increases that Kings House School will be introducing for use of the sports ground
It helps cover the cost of your football covering, along with your match fees: - Pitches - Equipment - Balls - Kits - Entering competitions.
If you are a civil servant but not a CSSC member you should apply to become one directly, please speak to a member of the Committee.
