Membership Fees

AFC Lightning Membership 2008/9

Joining Us

Before anyone joins AFC Lightning we recommend that they contact the age group manager or any of our coaches, then come and meet the squad and join in a few training sessions – prior to signing.

Membership Fees 2008/9 Season

For the 2008/9 season our fees are as follows:

Under 6's Development to Under 10's & Girls only = £70 p.a.

Under 12 Girls = £80 p.a.

Under 11's upwards = £85 p.a.

Players joining mid-season will pay a commensurate amount at the manager’s discretion.

In addition, AFC 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 manager for details.

All fees are payable by 31 July 2008 or as soon as a player registers, as this helps us meet the upfront costs of league registration, kit, pitch hire and training venues. Please note that Membership fees are non-refundable.

All cheques to be made payable to "AFC Lightning" (for the moment) and are to be handed to your manager/coaches with the name of the player and squad on the reverse side. e.g. Sally Smith Under 10’s.

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 14, 12 and 8 would pay £85+ £42.50+ £17.50 = £145.
