Request a payment plan if you cannot pay in full by the due date
Senior players who are unable to pay their annual fees in full by 31 March must contact the Treasurer before that date to arrange a personal payment plan to the clubs satisfaction. Similarly, junior players’ parents or guardians must contact the Treasurer before 30 April if they require personal payment plans. Please email treasurer@ochc.com.au and inform your team manager that you have requested a payment plan. Once your payment plan has been agreed upon please confirm this immediately with your team manager.

​

Applicants for payment plans are assessed on a case by case basis and generally in accordance with a 6-8 week payment schedule. In exceptional cases longer payment plans may be granted at the clubs discretion.

​

Any member whose annual fee has not been paid in full by 31 May or who is not fulfilling a payment plan approved by the Treasurer becomes ineligible to play as long as their annual fee remains unpaid. Keep in mind that the player’s annual fee includes insurance cover. Also note that the clubs constitution authorises the committee to set an administrative charge for unpaid annual fees and un-financial members are ineligible to vote at any club meeting.

​

Provision for reduced annual fee in case of injury or other special reasons
If a player finds during the season that they have played 8 games or less because of injury or another substantial reason, they should contact the Treasurer immediately. Arrangements for these cases are at the discretion of the committee.

Adjustment of the annual playing members fee in the following cases:
A registered OCHC junior player also registered in an OCHC senior team receives a discount on the combined total junior plus senior fees.

​

An OCHC goal keeper who supplies their own complete goalkeeping kit receives a discounted rate on the applicable annual fee (please see fee table above).

​

Transfer to or from another Australian club to OCHC

It is in the interest of any player attempting to transfer to or from another club to OCHC to ensure that they can be declared a “financial member” of their current club. Be aware that all Australian hockey clubs are required to ensure that any players they are accepting from other clubs are “financial”; that is, that they do not owe any money to the club they are leaving. Both clubs involved in a player transfer are expected to complete a transfer acceptance through the management system (i.e. Rev Sport) which confirms financial clearance approval by the releasing Club.

Old Canberrans Hockey Club Incorporated Finances

OCHC is a non-profit association registered and operating under ACT law. Approximately 80% of the club’s annual income is derived from member fees, which are paid to HACT to cover competition costs for the club’s teams in both the outdoor winter and indoor summer seasons. These costs include field hire for outdoor training.

 

HACT competition fees and field hire increase incrementally each year. The remaining funds are primarily used for end-of-season expenses, including awards, trophies, and equipment such as balls and training gear. Modest honoraria are paid to the head coach of the Men’s and Women’s Capital League 1 training squads respectively. These payments, along with the cost of additional field hire for their training sessions, are funded by the higher annual fees paid by members of those squads.

​

The committee actively seeks donations and sponsorships and monitors advertised grant programs, with a particular focus on junior development. The club’s annual financial statements for the financial year end on 31 October, are audited and presented at the AGM.
