Membership Info

TWHC welcomes new members at any time during the year. If you're a prospective new member then please phone or email the relevant contacts below and complete a senior or junior membership form as appropriate. You are welcome to come along to a couple of ‘taster’ training sessions before committing to membership.

Below is information on the various membership categories for the 2010/11 season, both for new and renewing members.

To find out more, come along to a taster session or if the information below doesn't answer your questions, please contact:

Please note we treat 16 and 17 year old members (as at 1st Sept) as seniors and they should contact the appropriate Club Captain. However, for child protection purposes, they are still counted as juniors and will be required to complete a junior membership form (which includes parental consent).

Ways to pay

  • Standing order - the subs marked with an '*' can be paid over six months by standing order.  This should be set up to pay monthly from September to February (first payment needs to be arranged to be paid in September 2010). If you would like to pay this way please complete a standing order form which should be returned to your bank.
  • Cheque - these should be made payable to TWHC. Cheques can be accepted for annual payment or post dated for monthly payment if all cheques are received before the 30th September, the first cheque dated for September, the last for February.
  • Bank transfer - the full amount can be transferred into the club account.  The club's bank is Lloyds TSB, the branch is Tunbridge Wells, the account name is 'Tunbridge Wells Hockey Club', the account number is 01792868 and the sort code is 30 98 77.

We are particularly grateful to the many members who greatly help both our cash flow and our membership administration by settling in full at the outset of each season.

 

Introduce a new player and get discounted subs!

Any current club member who introduces a new player in the age range 18 years and over to under 35, who is not previously known to the club (ie. not recorded on any TWHC membership database) and who subsequently pays a full (not discounted) subscription for their relevant playing category, will receive a £50 discount on their own subscription for each new member introduced, up to the value of their full subscription.
