Hi Guys
Can anyone give me an idea about Registration Fee cost for clubs playing Zone League football in Newcastle?
Also what you get included in a package.
Thanks
Hi Guys

the set costs to be paid to Newcastle Football by each senior player is $182:
$22.78 - FFA
$98.00 - NNSW and insurance
$44.72 - Newcastle Football
$16.55 - GST
clubs will put additional costs on this to cover ground hire, referees fees, membership and administrative costs
fore example, Cooks Hill United's total cost for registration for Zone Football League in 2013 is $370
Barnsley bulldogs obviously register with Macquarie football not newcastle but they are so similar, I think off the top of my head it was $178 with them.
But we are charging our players $300 total this year which will get them a game, club shirt, home and away playing shorts and socks and a club jacket, there are no other fees for the season, no match fees just turn up and play. This is up $20 from last year as the jack is a new addition and the club moving up to ZPL. We think this is one of the cheapest in zone football will be interested to see what others are!
Also have heard that some others in ZPL are over the $500 mark
that's the breakdown given by NNSW, they don't split it any further
An absolute rort if these figures are correct.
FFA have a lot to answer to if that is the cost for a member of Joe Public to play this game.
FFA NNSW and Newcastle Football not to mention the Federal Government seem to be making a killing out of this game yet when pressed would moan they are broke
instead of all you blokes claiming that you're being rorted without knowing anything about the way the game is run, or having any involvement in running it, please go and look at the financial statement from the NNSW Annual Report
http://issuu.com/northernnswfootball...nual_report/52
then please document where the administrators are going wrong, where money is being taken from players and not put back into the game, as well as where these organisations are claiming to be broke
Lake Macquarie All Age charging $340.00 , what the hell ?
Cheaper to play ID3 at Toronto.
from memory it's going to cost around $340 for rego @ westlakes (zone league 2). i believe it includes a playing jersey & entry to club functions (presso night, etc), plus all the club costs and all that.
OK
5 million revenue. 1.1 million in wages for 13 FULLTIME staff. Seems awfully high to be having 20% of income going to people with snouts in the trough. Most other businsses I have seen operate on a much lower percentage closer to the 10% mark .
Like Most financial reports Boz there is far too much generalistation as to where the funds are going. ie Whats the breakdown in the High Performance expenses?? How has that money be spent?? Money can easily be frittered away in some of these areas easily. ie staying in the dearest hotel in town as opposed to the alternate of staying 3 star etc. How can you expect anyone to answer your questions from this document are beyond me. The Info ain't there.
Boz my general point about this subject is it is ridiculous for people to be expected to be paying these type of fees. FFA should be ensuring fees to play football l in this country are at their lowest possible. I ain't seeing that from them.
In light of these fees you would expect our coaching systems to be state of the art and the game in this country flourishing when other third world countries can produce the goods talent wise on much less money than we are putting in.
Money is frittered away in this country and it is a shame and a disgrace that it is allowed to happen
How many other business do you have intimate knowledge of that are so service based???? You can't possibly compare a manufacturing or retail business to a sports body, that is just an ill informed statement to make.
Surprisingly millions of financial analysts and planners use such documents all the time to make assessments on much larger and complex business. Perhaps it is because they are experienced in things they comment on.
Have you attended a recent FFA run education course? Seen a Sean Kelly presentation on tactics? Had Norm Broadman explaining coaching course presentations? Paid to go to the upcoming Coaching Education Seminar Northern are running? Completed your C or B Cert's in the last couple of years? Read the reports of last seasons Participation Survey? Need I go on?
Before saying you "ain't seeing" anything lets first make sure what effort your making to see them. Compare what is provided and offered in coaching education now to ten years ago or 20 years ago. Compare the effort and researach being done to see why people leave the code, why parents bring them to the code in the first place, what the sports costs when you actually compare to say ballet or martial arts over 7 months.
Because those and more are what is being done, I've actually seen it.
I look forward to seeing you gain the support from your own club and others around your area for your own nomination to the Northern Board at the next elections then shall we?
Look, I don't agree with every dollar spent, or the quality of every project taken on but making sweeping negative statements backed by nothing but an apparent lack of knowledge do our code no help at all.
Agree the coach education stuff (in my experience) is done really well.
My current gripe with the FFA specifically, is with the MyFootball online payment system. If a club uses it to accept credit cards, then the FFA take 3%. Our club has used a different system for the last 4 seasons, and even after setting up our own merchant account, we only pay 1.2% (Over nearly 100k in rego fees it adds up)
You can bet the FFA is paying no more than 0.5% (the bigger you are the less you pay). So the FFA is "skiming" an extra 2.5% off all regos paid on line in Australia......

A bit harse on the coaches dont you think. I think most if not all take there job pretty seriously and are doing research to make them selves better. The 2 coaches i know have developed very well over the years by bits that northern have done as well as developing them selves. I agree northern could do more and this weeks coaching weekend is doing more. It will be interesting which coaches dont go, That would make them the coaches that dont want to be developed.
The boys I coached 2 years ago U18s didn't play last year in All age because it was going to be $330 that was only rego ad $5 a game upfront had to buy your own shorts adsocks if u didn't have any that was Barnsey juniors
i think you will find the terrace has been the cheapest for years. $250.00 for rego for past couple of years this included games fees , club shirt , shorts and socks , someone correct me if im wrong but i think this about right , this year i think it is $290.00 same deal.
stockton charge $300.00 which includes game fees , training gear ( shirt and shorts ) club shirt , shorts and socks.
not bad for a squad that is only 2 years in the running. each year we move along the rego at stockton has been getting cheaper and next year it will more than likley be cheaper again.
Incredible the amounts of Rego's being quoted on here (I mean that in a good way).
The club I have intimate knowledge of has held their Rego fees at the same level across the board, and will make a LOSS of $16 per All Age player. I haven't looked through the entire structure, but can only assume this loss will be replicated all the way through the Age brackets.
