Last season the club lost over £1000 in unpaid subs.
IN OTHER WORDS PAYING MEMBERS ARE SUBSIDISING THOSE WHO DO NOT PAY
Non-payers are getting all the benefits of membership without paying for them.
In addition, non-paid up ‘members’ do not enjoy the benefits of club insurance through the RFU. Too many players last season did not pay their annual subscriptions and got away with it. The Executive has decided to tackle this problem head on.
