Green Fees

[Angel]

Our Club has introduced £1 Green Fees for league games and Competitions,
Thing is all the other Clubs in the Division are only charging 50 pence,
And you should hear the moaning that is going on, every time we have a league game
You would think we were asking them to pay a fiver a game,
This was voted on at the AGM if one more person asks me why our green fees have gone up I wont be responsible for my Actions

Do you Bowlers think this is reasonable or not

That's about $2:20 in Aussie $'s which is pretty good. We have a $1 green fee on some of our social games which goes into a jackpot. All of our club championships and inter club games are free. 1 of our directors wants to put a $1 levy on all social games to raise money for new uniforms but can't get it through the board. Most clubs around the area charge $3 for social games, our members are very lucky and hate putting their hands in their pockets !!

Hi Red

Your green fees dont sound bad, we pay green fees on all games and competitions,
When its friendlies we also supply raffel prizes and then buy tickets cost £1
When you talk about uniforms we have to buy ours and they cost a lot only found out recentely the Club buys them in and then adds on extra to make money for the Club
Think my hand is never out of my Pocket,

Morning Everyone

Do think if you are charging one pound a game at home its a bit unfair if you only pay fifty pence for away games at other Clubs,
Why did your Club think it necessary to raise the Green Fees

Hi Kiwi and Red

Interesting to compare the different prices for Club Membership and Competitions,
We Pay £60 for annual yearly Subscriptions, and then all National Competitions are £2.50 each
But every game we pay green fees,
I think I should emigrate, you get a much better deal over there and definitely better Clubs and Greens,
