Fees changes for 2010

Dear Past and Future Players

With Brighton Soccer Club registration for the 2010 season due to be opened shortly, membership fees can now be viewed by clicking on Fees 2010

Over the last few months much consideration has been given to the level of fees for the forthcoming season. They need to cover all the costs of the club whilst ensuring we maintain the Club's not for profit status.
Unfortunately many costs have increased since last year and significant investment is required in new kits and equipment for the season ahead; as a result we have taken the decision to increase fees slightly.

Even with this increase we believe the fees represent fantastic value for money, which is only achievable thanks to the huge amount of time and energy given by so many people towards the running of the club.

Mike Roberts
President BSC

Feb 01 - 2010

Reminder to ALL Brighton Soccer Club teams that training is strictly prohibited on Dendy Park until 1st April 2010. Failure to adhere to this restriction will result in possible fines to the club and potential further action by Bayside Council. We have already been issued with a number of warnings due to council inspections sighting teams already training. We request that all coaches find alternative venues if they wish to train prior to the club having access to our grounds.

Coaches & managers will be aware from previous correspondence that all are required to complete a Working with Children Check by 30 June 2009.  Click here for the FFV's recently released policy document outlining the obligations for clubs and their members under this mandatory system.  For practical reasons, it is the club's strong preference that all WWC Checks are completed prior to the start of next season.  Copies of the Working with Children Check form can be obtained from post offices.  Please arrange for the "Employer copy" of the assessment notice to be sent to: Brighton Soccer Club, PO Box 398, Brighton 3186.
