Cambridge is in the South (and a bloody expensive place to live). We play £30 a year + £5 match fee = around £150 a year. That covers all our costs, including paid groundsman and junior coach and leaves a grand or so left over every year for capital investment.


Your groundsman and junior coach cannot be charging a great deal or the other investment must be quite large and I'll guess no umpires fees of a weekend?

No need for a  financial rescue plan as the village owns the ground we have money in the bank the groundsman works for free the
only bills the club have are for keeping the square maintained  and cutting of the outfield   should the club fold its will be through lack of players rather than money

Do you not think that perhaps your expensive subs and fees might be one of the reasons you are struggling for players?

I think we pay around 2500 for the groundskeeping and 1000 for the junior coaching.

Personally  for a club with excellent  facilities  inc tennis a  club a professional groundsman and  provides a first class  tea wouldn't consider £50.00 annual subs and £10.00 match fee expensive for employed players.
The reason we struggle for players is the village only as around 20 properties  and most residents are getting on a bit  it's also out of the way in the Worcestershire countryside.
