Subs - £30 a season, £10 a game.

Playing / Training kit had to come out of my pocket, no help with that from sponsors etc.  :( 

It is Adidas kit via All Rounder at a cost of £28 - shirt, £30 - short sleeve jumper, £37 - long sleeve jumper, £20 - Training shirt, £35 - Hoodie.  The turnaround time for kit at the start of the year went from good to really bad (5+ weeks to get my LS jumper) with AR, something to do with them changing the company that do the embroidery.  Ended up finding a local company that can do it within a week and bought some training shirts from SD (2 for £22) and getting it done for a fiver with them, got a baggy blue done by them too otherwise might still be waiting for all my kit  ;)

Two clubs for me and the contrast is massive:

Shanghai - China - (when i am teaching) 250 pounds for subs & 0 a game - there is no home ground so all the clubs have to hire the pitches - this includes an awesome cap and a dreadful playing shirt (bloody indian sizes!!!! & my fat belly!!!) and in reality i only play about 8 games - if you pay per game it is 50pounds membership and 30 a game!!

Back home in the UK - 500 life membership - paid upfront (normally 50 a year) never have to pay subs again!!! 7 a game, shirt is 20 and all other kit etc is all under 20 - so good value and good turn round time with a local intersport shop

I found out last night that our embroidered club shirts are £30 each!!!

This means members pay £120 annual subs and £8 per game match fees. ON top of that, the shirt is an extra £30.

Now I love my club and I proud to wear the Chertsey blue - but these are tough times for some people, and I think that's a bit rich. I'm well aware of the cost of embroidered clothing, and I can see a huge mark-up here. In addition to this, I'm constantly being told the club is comfortably well off. I'm sure I read somewhere that some clubs give you a shirt as part of your membership fees.

What does playing cost other people - or am I out of touch with what other clubs do?

The club are being too transparent - they should have charged £150 shirt included, extra shirts £30 - that's how clubs give you a shirt as part of the membership fee.

£35 seasons student membership, £29 for embroidered shirt, £27 for embroidered trousers and £3.50 per match fees. Seems very reasonable to what I have been reading here.
