FEE SUMMARY

Outlined below are the different types of fees you will be required to pay throughout the year.

Club Annual Membership Subscription

Each year we shall collect an annual subscription which goes towards the running costs of the Club. Annual subscriptions are due in October for the year to the following September. The annual fee is reduced for new swimmers / players joining the club from January onwards.

Scottish Swimming Membership (referred to as SASA fee)

Each year the Club has to pay Scottish Swimming a membership fee for every member. This fee covers the cost of insurance for the club and the swimmers as well as membership of the governing body. Scottish Swimming set the fee at their AGM in February and the Club makes a group payment on behalf of its members. Members will be asked for their fee in March. The fee is reduced for new swimmers joining the club from September onwards.

Squad Fees

Each month you will be expected to pay squad fees by standing order. These are used to cover the costs of pool hire and the coaching staff. Fees are agreed at the AGM each year in September and are split over 12 months to spread the cost.

Water Polo players that also swim in the Club Squad or the competitive squads will need to add the appropriate squad fee to the water polo fee.

Water Polo players are normally eligible to join the Club Squad.

Water Polo League Fees

Water polo players will be required to pay their share of any league or cup entry fees. Details will be provided by the Water Polo coach.

A few notes to avoid confusion:

There is a swimming squad called ‘Club Squad’ which is for non-competitive swimmers. A ‘Club swimmer’ is a more general reference to any swimmer in Stirling Swimming Club.

Water Polo tends to use the word ‘Player’.
