Subscriptions and Fees for U9 to U16 - 2025 / 2026

 

U9 to U16 Teams are run financially independent from the club and each team will need to set up a team bank account to collect subs to cover their costs to the teams nominated treasurer - Lloyds bank are recommended for community accounts as seem to be the most straight forward ones to start up (Club constitution that you may need can be found on this pages a to z)

 

 Teams are advised to set their subscriptions at £25 a month per player for 12 months a year to cover the essential costs associated with running the team. Teams who struggle with sponsorship / fundraising for kits end of season presentation may choose to charge more than £25 to cover this as long as they keep good records and can display where money is spent to parents / FA

 

Please find how teams should be budgeting their subs each season to cover costs

Craig can provide a list of coaches contact details for you or you can use any other coach you may know. 

 

You must ensure any coaches you use have a FA CRC check in place before working with the team!!!

 

End of Season Presentation Activities / Nights

Parents are expected to club together to do a fundraiser and help organise their teams presentation and not just leave it for team managers to sort.

Ideas that some of our teams done in recent years are

Go Karting / Jump 360 / Footgolf / Quading / Go Climb / Inflatable outdoor waterpark in Scarborough / Race Night / Hired a room in Pub / Sponsored Walks

Some teams even budied up with other teams to fill out function rooms etc and make a night of it

(If teams need any help or advice on this please feel free to ask the football development officer or any of the experienced managers from the older ages)

Sponsorship and Fundraising

Your child subscriptions will not cover training kits / rain coats, presentation day activities etc so teams will need to find a sponsor, fund raise or just charge parents the cost of any extra kit or presentation activity

 

 Ideas for fundraising include

Blind Cards (Available off ebay)

Lottery Bonus Ball

Sponsored Walks / Runs

Bag Packing at local store

Race nights / sports mans dinner

If doing fundraising please ensure you have a few of you involved in cash handling that sign each time you have any income / outgoings and share this info regularly with parents so they know how much is in the teams kitty to protect yourself from parents calculating what is in the pot and making false accusations.
