Cool.

See you tonight.

nathan Posted - 04/08/2004 : 08:50:47
Thanks.

If you wish to discuss this further talk to me at training. I will not do it over the internet for all to see. We have our reasons and that is pretty much all I will say.

Sat 7th August will be the first PAY as you PLAY sat for all to join in.

Pay as you play will start Sat 7th Aug 2004.

3hr training will start 1st Sept 2004. The 1st hr dedicated to the juniors and begineers. The 2nd and 3rd hr is for the A and B team members only. This 2hr session will include fitness, skill and match play. Those who attwnd will be expected to co-opperate.

Nath, might be a silly idea, but would it be best to start the play to play when the 3h sessions starts? I think the 4 week trial is a great idea, but i also think starting it in the middle of holiday season will mean there will not be a good representation of who will be there. the 1st sept is much nearer the end of the holiday season and would be a complete new start for the club. This is only a suggestion, i don;t want to tread on yours and clives toes, just trying to offer some constructive advice.

thanks m

Will there be a change to subs when the new system kicks off? And is Wednesday going to be 6-9 or 7-10pm?

I think trialling the saturday pay as you play is a good idea (as agreed at the AGM) Although as you already mentioned we do need to bear in mind that it is peak holiday season and so were not going to get a true reflection of 'normal' numbers of players for a few weeks.

How much notice do the sports centre need for a cancellation? If during the summer we knew when we werent likely to get enough players due to holidays could we just cancel that week - like we did for eastbourne? Most people know in advance when they cant make it.

ok, cool.

I'm sure you and Nath have everything under control, and i hope the pay as you play is a success.

see you weds,

iam not going to get in to how much the hall costs
but it is no were near £50.
lets just say that our last hall bill was £750 which
we are about £100 short

the amount 2.50 ia a fair individual price to charge
if you say the junior players would benefit from
playing with some seniors it would then be the parents
who fit the bill at the moment we have a few parents with
2 or more children who attend this would work out two expensive
if the price is to high no one could aford it and sat would be no more

I think the one month trial is a good idea.

Can I make a suggestion?

pay as you play -

have a staggered charging structure.

I understand you said the hall hire is quite expensive - what is the actual cost? Cos the only was you can work out what to charge on the door, is to divide the cost of the hour by the predicted number of people coming to the session.

eg - on average you expect lets say, 10 - 12 people to come. Lets say the hall costs 50-00 for the hour. that means you need an average of 5-00 per head. I am sure you have looked through all the costing properly, and havnt just come up with a random figure, i am just interested at how you have come up with the cost of £2.50

cheers


Chaz

ps hope you get the barriers!!

thanks chaz for those coments
speaking from experiance

1 you will find that in the summer holidays most familys
have holidays or days out, this happened last summer
when on most saturdays only a handfull of players attended

2 We are going to start this saturday 07/08/2004 "PAY TO PLAY"
for a one month trial to see if it will pay for its self.
Everyone will be informed on wednesday.
We are asking a fee at the door of £2.50 to any one who wishes
to attend juniors or seniors if you dont have the money stay away.

3 we will be speaking to chrisy today about extending wednesday
from 2hr to 3hr (1hr juniors) (2hr seniors team a & b and robert)
we will be asking about the bariers.

Ok, a few things about the sat session:

1. Get rid of saturday and you will have no intergration between junior and seniors

2. what about players like robert? not big enough to take part in the senior 2 hour session, so would now only be able to play 1 hour a week, and will not be able to progress as quickly.

3. Removing an hours training for any player is a bad way to market the sport. - when will new players get the match time to be able to progress to league level??

4. The saturday sessions are almost always full - i know clive said he didn't think that saturdays would pay for themselves - is he just basing his opinion on the fact that we had one quiet saturday?

5. When will mini league tournaments happen? or will the session take place on a weds, in which case is 1 hour junior training enough?

Lastly, do we even have the three hour session available on a weds? If you have not, then you don't even know if canceling saturdays is even an option.

Don;t mean to sound harsh, i just think cancelling saturdays would be a mistake as juniors will have nothing to aim for, and senior players that want to train more than 2 hours a week(which is not alot when we want to improve our teams fitness levels) will not have an oportunity.
