Membership rules and fees - Revised for 2019-2020
We are a not for profit organisation. We strive to balance our books each year and look to make a modest surplus of income over expenditure so that we have a small reserve in the Bank for unexpected expenses from time to time.
We align our membership calendar with the TTE (Table Tennis England) year – 1st August to 31st July.
All our members are registered with Table Tennis England (TTE). Active members will be registered as "Player" members of TTE. Social members will only be registered as "Associate" members. TTE membership provides insurance cover for anyone participating in any club activity.
All membership packages below include the TTE "player" registration fees.
We have 5 basic annual membership packages as follows:
| Membership type | Monthly Standing Order | Annualised |
|---|---|---|
| Senior Active Member | £15 | £180 |
| Junior Active Member | £10 | £120 |
| Senior Social Member | £7 | £84 |
| Junior Social Member | £5 | £60 |
| Family Active Membership | £23 | £276 |
| Family Social Membership | £10 | £120 |
These membership "Types" are based on a member's anticipated attendance and participation in Competitive events and activities as follows:
- Active Member
Attends Club night regularly and is active in League and Competitive play - Social Member
Attends irregulary and doesn't take part in League or competitive play - Family Active Membership
One Adult & One Junior with both attending regularly and taking part in League etc. - Family Social Membership
One Adult & One Junior (Under 18) as above.
In addition to the above we are a small enough club to be able to tailor "packages" suited to a member's profile if it does not "fit" with one of the above Types.
Please Note - We now only accept payment of fees in one lump sum for the year (or part year) or by monthly standing Order.
Guests and visitors on Monday Club nights will be charged a £5 session fee. We encourage membership after 4 guest visits. This is an insurance requirement.
Once payment is made, or the Standing Order is set up, there is nothing else to pay. No session fees, no match fees and entry to tournaments and competitions is covered.
We are open approximately 45 Monday evenings for recreational/social play throughout the year, these are our 'Club' nights. We will be closed on all Bank Holidays and a few selected Mondays over the Easter/Summer/Christmas/New Year periods. Members will be advised of closures by Email updates.
Our opening times at TPS are now the same throughout the year, see our Home page.
Members email address are used to communicate with you and to advise news/events, opening dates/times, closures etc., and of course this website will be updated to reflect these. We also have a Facebook page and Group which we encourage you to 'like/join'.
