All,
     hopefully will be meeting many of you next season. One question please. What is the standard entrance fee charged by your clubs. Any help appreciated.

This season Scarboroughs was £8 which included a full colour uniquely printed programme. Not a book of adverts with a centre photocopy.

Driffield is £7 with uniquely printed programme for each home game included

Would say the majority are closer to the £10 mark.

Personally can't see the benefit of overcharging. The additional revenue from the individuals that turn up every week, can also acts as a deterrent for those that you see sporadically.

Wetherby is £5 with Program and free for kids (like scarbs full colour uniquely printed programme for each game). A fiver used to be the standard a couple of years ago at levels 6-7 but starting to see £7-8 more frequently this season in NE2.

We did discuss it at the start of this season and stuck to the fiver for two reason these being; to keep it easy for chaps on gate with change (but majority now pay on card so thats becomming less of an issue) and also concern that it would effect numbers turning up to watch.

I did note Yorkshire are chaging a tenner to go watch the next Yorkshire ladies and mens game at Ionians in a couple of weeks. 

 

Thank you gents. Any more please?

Ilkley £9.00 inc parking and programme

Feel I should highlight that parking is also included in the price at Kelleythorpe to avoid confusion now. Also don't charge for the toilets or access to the bar. Small charge to non-members to view the scoreboard but can't be giving everything away now.

Gate is a tenner on the gate - can't remember if their is concessions (maybe £5)
Usual u16's free and members don't pay entrance fee on game days

Don't think prices have changed for around 10 years

Under 18s free at Scarborough. Strongly believe that they should be everywhere, 16 and 17 year olds are still age grade players.

It may not be relevant to these dizzy heights but part of the planning consent conditions applied to Ripon's new stand and pitch enclosure programme was to levy entrance charges from this season. We used to have voluntary contributions to a half time bucket collection and free (freshly printed paper) programmes were available. Entry charge is now £5, free for members and U16s, programmes available in bar - still free but you can't get a car parking space for love or money. Any volunteers, home or away, who run the manual scoreboard, get a free pint for their trouble.

U18s free at Scarborough? I bet they swan through without paying and then get served to alcoholic drinks at the bar haha.
