2025/26 Membership Subscriptions
The proposed membership subscriptions for 2025/26 have been based on the previous year with a modest increase of ~3% for adult membership categories to account for inflation and increased costs of business.
Junior Categories will benefit from a significant discount to £99 (Junior) and £149 (Youth) to encourage greater participation in these categories, which in turn will benefit the club through our Junior Squads programme and the long-term health of Jersey tennis.
Early bird discounts will apply for subscriptions paid in full before 31/5/2025.
Winter memberships (50%) will be available.
Proposed Subscriptions:
Auditors
Due to a change in Accountancy rules during the past financial year, St. George & Co. Chartered Accountants resigned from their role in providing an 'Assurance Review' of the Club's Accounts.
It is proposed the requirement of the committee to provide 'audited accounts' to membership is achieved by employing St. George & Co. Chartered Accountants to prepare the Club's Financial Accounts with bookkeeping carried out by an independent qualified bookkeeper.
This process provides oversight of accounts, whilst keeping costs at a proportionate level and enables a fast-turnaround of end of year Financial Accounts.
Annual DRAFT Accounts for the year ended 30 September 2024 can be requested.
