Fees
WINTER SEASON 2012
Fees for winter 201 2 have been finalised.
Membership Fees
Payment of membership fees is a responsibility of all club members as this enables both the club to function efficiently and effectively and you to enjoy the game on the field! Membership fees cover the following:
- Hockey Victoria costs (club affiliation, team registration, compulsory insurance)
- Coaching costs
- Pitch hire (Albert Park and State Hockey Centre)
- Umpiring costs
- Facilities (licences, light and power, maintenance and repairs)
- Club administration
This equates to the following cost per player:
Costs |
Seniors |
Masters |
| HV affiliation, team registration and insurance | $153 | $143 |
| Facilities and club administration | $105 | $105 |
| Coaching | $185 | $0 |
| Pitch hire | $167 | $72 |
| Umpiring costs | $49 | $49 |
| FULL COST PER PLAYER (PRIOR TO FUNDRAISING / CANTEEN PROFIT SUBSIDY) |
$659 | $369 |
The club subsidises membership fees through the profits made on the canteen and through its fundraising activities so the full costs set out above are not passed on to members.

We have limited the increase in fees for early bird payments to 5-6% as we recognise that membership fees represent a significant cost to you. However, an increase in fees has become unavoidable, after not increasing membership fees in 2011, as a result of significant increases to our cost base, specifically:
- Hockey Victoria team registration fees which have increased by $8,000 from 2011
- Coaching costs which have increased by $9,500 from 2011 as the club has responded to feedback from members to provide dedicated coaching for the top two senior teams for the men’s and women’s sections and coaching for the metro teams
The club has made / will be making a number of payment options available to members including:
- Integrated registration and payment through the Sporting Pulse website (available from 13 February)
- Direct deposit into the clubs bank account (BSB 033-169 Account 750465) – please include your name as a reference to enable easy identification. THIS IS THE CLUB’S PREFERRED METHOD
- Credit card - the club’s credit card machine will be available for payment by arrangement
- Cheques made payable to Powerhouse & St Kilda Hockey Club – please send cheques to the Treasurer, PO Box 5037, South Melbourne, VIC, 3205
- Cash – please send cash to the Treasurer, PO Box 5037, South Melbourne, VIC, 3205
For any payments made by the above methods, please can you advise Ben Skinner by email at treasurer@phskhockey.org.au including your name, the date and amount paid.
As previously advised, the club requires payment of $100 by all members prior to Round 1 (14 April 2012) to be eligible to play. Early bird discounts are available to members for payment by 1 April 2012. For anyone facing financial hardship, please email Ben (at the email address) to make sustainable arrangements to pay your membership fees.
