 | Ensure
prompt payment of match fees by captains. If you allow a captain to
get into serious arrears on match fees then it gives the club a problem, and
potentially the captain a problem.
|
| Ensure
a system is in place to track match fees owed. Don’t let players get away
with “I’ll pay next week” and never actually make up their debts.
|
| Pay
the club's bills - AFA, League and Cup entry fees, pitch fees, catering costs, etc.
|
| Ensure
the club has suitable insurance policies in place.
|
| Ensure
the club accounts are kept up-to-date, and financially sound. Ensure you
have enough funds at the start of the season to pay affiliation fees, pitch
bookings, new kits etc. Many of these have to be paid up front before a ball
is kicked (and therefore, before any subs are collected).
|
| Present
accounts to the club’s AGM.
