New process explained.....

As the new season will soon be upon us, we wanted to provide you with some further information regarding the 2022 Annual Membership Fees, and to hopefully answer any questions you may have. The changes were approved by the Club's membership at the AGM held in January.

For the first time, we are delighted to announce that we have arranged for a membership product to be available which includes the price of a new short sleeve playing shirt. It is a requirement of the Club's membership that all members that play games and represent the Club, wear a Countesthorpe CC shirt. For our Sunday Friendly team, this can be a Leicester Teachers shirt. It is even more important for the 2022-2023 seasons that ALL Club members wear a shirt during competitive and Sunday Friendly matches because, following our shirt sponsorship raffle, the Club has a new sponsor for these seasons. We therefore need to ensure that our new sponsor's logo, Pacifik Floors, is on ALL playing shirts.

Please note that it is not required for a Club shirt to be purchased for members of the Tots or Inclusive teams (as, at present, they do not play any matches). However, a shirt can be ordered if they would like to wear a Club shirt!

As you should all now be aware, if you do not want to order a new playing shirt for this season, which is fine, then we do need your CCC club shirt AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, so that we can get your shirt printed. There is no cost to you for this printing so all you need to do is either give your shirt to one of the senior captains, the Director of Senior Cricket, a Junior Team Manager, the Chairman or drop it in at the Club House on a Saturday morning between 9-11.30am, or at any time that the Club House is open. There is a box in the Club House for you to put your shirt. Please do help us out and let us have your shirt (making sure you have written your name in the label) WITHOUT DELAY!

2022 ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP FEES

To see all of the 2022 Annual Membership Fees, please click HERE Alternatively, you can login to the Pitchero Club App and all of the membership products are available by clicking on the shopping cart icon. As you will see, there is two products available for every membership category, one which includes a shirt, and one which does not include a shirt.

Please note that there are payment installment options available for the majority of the membership products therefore, if you do not want to, you do not have to pay for it all in one go!

Just remember, for all players, this fee covers 22 weeks of coaching and, for our juniors all matches as we do not charge junior match fees. Match fees are charged separately for senior matches.

THE PROCESS- SHIRT INCLUSIVE FEE

So, if you do pay for your annual membership which includes a shirt then you will need to following this simple process:

  • Once you have received a confirmation of payment email from Pitchero, please email Richard Holdridge, at richard.holdridge@btinternet.com and ask Richard for a discount code in relation to your free shirt;
  • Once Richard has verified that payment has been received from you, he will process your request and you will receive an email from our shirt supplier (NXT Sports) with a discount code;
  • Once you have received this code, all you will need to do is go to the Club Kit shop, which is at https://teamwear.nxt-sports.com/shop/countesthorpe-cc or by clicking HERE
  • Once on the Club Kit site, simply place the short sleeve shirt into your basket, and then insert the discount code where indicated when at the checkout. This will remove all cost and will mean that you have absolutely nothing to pay.

Please note that if you do decide to personalise your shirt or you wish to order a long sleeve shirt, these additional costs (£2 each) are not included and you will be required to pay the additional amount. The benefit of ordering your shirt this way is that the Club will pay your delivery charge and, if you wanted to order any additional kit on the same order, no further delivery charge will be paid by you.

THE ALTERNATIVE

If you do not want to order your shirt this way then you are free to go to the Club Kit Shop and to order any kit yourself.

ASSIGNMENT OF PRODUCTS

As there are a number of different annual membership products, in the coming days, you will all be allocated to the product that applies to you/ your child to make life easier for you. Please note, as there are two products for each category of membership (one including, and one excluding a shirt), you will be assigned to both products. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BUY BOTH MEMBERSHIP PRODUCTS, ONLY ONE (but obviously we do not know if you want to buy a new shirt or not). Once you have paid for the one that you want (either including or excluding a shirt), the second product allocation will be deleted.

PARENT SOCIAL MEMBERSHIP

In line with the Club's rules and in accordance with the ECB's model rules, it is a requirement that all junior members have at least ONE parent or guardian registered as a parent social member of the Club. Therefore, with each of the junior membership categories this year, there is the option to include one parent social membership fee in this payment. Can you please ensure that this option is used or, alternatively, you can pay for the parent social membership fee separately if you choose.

Please note, if any of the parents are already players for the Club (either men or women) who have paid their own membership fee, then YOU DO NOT need to pay a parent social membership fee.

Also, if you have more than one child that plays for the Club, you only need to be registered as a parent social member ONCE; you DO NOT need to pay a parent social membership fee for each of your children.

We can also confirm that if you are undertaking one of our many volunteer positions then your parent social membership fee will be waived, as a thank you for helping us out.

FAMILY MEMBERSHIP

We are pleased to confirm that we have introduced two new family membership options this year. These are:

Family Membership - Where there is one adult playing member and at least two junior members.
If this applies to your family then the price of the Adult Playing member's annual membership fee (male or female) will be reduced by 50% (not including the cost of a shirt) and the juniors' annual membership fees will remain the same.

Ultimate Family Membership- Where there is one Senior Playing member, one Lady Playing member and at least two junior members.
If this applies to your family, then the Ladies annual membership fee will be waived and the senior and junior membership fees will remain the same.

Please note that due to the online system, we are not able to allocate these discounts automatically so you will need to apply to the Club for one of these family membership discounts. However, if one of them does apply to your family then the discount WILL be given.

I am sorry for the essay (I can assure you it has taken me a while to draft!!) but I hope that this explains the 2022 Annual Membership Fees and answers any questions you may have.

If you do have any queries, then please drop me an email at jamespopplewell@outlook.com

Roll on the summer!
