Membership Fees - 2019/20 Season
For this season our fees are as follows:
- Under 6s to Under 7s = NO FEE (down from last season's £50 and £70)
- Under 8s to Under 10s = £80 (no increase)
- Under 11s to Under 16s = £120 (up £10)
Players joining mid-season will pay a commensurate amount at the manager's discretion.
In addition, AFC Lightning run a family discount scheme (see below). We are able to offer support, in confidence, to anyone who may have difficulty in meeting these costs. Talk to your Team Manager for details.
All fees are payable by July 31st, or as soon as a player completes and returns his/her registration form, as this helps us meet the up-front costs of league registration, kit, equipment, referees, pitch hire and training venues. Please note that Membership Fees are non-refundable.
All cheques to be made payable to "AFC Lightning" and are to be handed to your manager or coach with the name of the player and team on the reverse side. e.g. "Josephine Bloggs, U10s"
What is included in the price?
AFC Lightning membership covers the following:
- All match fees for the season (unless specified*)
- Training sessions for the season (unless specified*)
- League fees and third-party indemnity insurance
- Provision of club equipment to support training
- Subsidies for some club social events
- End-of-season medals & trophies
* Small voluntary contributions may be requested for third-party location indoor / astroturf training & tournaments.
The AFC Lightning Family Discount Scheme
We do offer a family discount for more than 1 player within the same immediate family: The oldest child pays full price, second child pays 50%, third and subsequent children pay 25% (of the subscribed amount). For example a family with 3 players aged 12, 9 and 6 would pay £110 + £40.00 + £15.00 = £165.00.
