CLUB NOTES RE SEASON 2017/18 Ice Bookings & Allocations: We will be sending out our ice booking pack before the end of April, 2017. All ice booking requests should be returned to us fully complete by 31st May, 2017. We will then issue our ice allocations pack by 31st July, 2017 with any errors, omissions or corrections notified back to us by 31st August, 2017 for consideration and amendment where necessary. Ice Fees: Season 2016-17 was another difficult season financially for the curling centre with increased utility costs arising mainly from the mild weather conditions. Despite the increased ice management costs and a slight fall in ice bookings there will be no increase in ice fees for season 2017-18. Our fees will therefore be held at: - • Hold the FCCC Individual Membership at £2.00 per member. • Daytime ice sessions at £8.00 per person per session • Weekend ice session times at £11 per person per session • Prime Time ice session times (Monday to Friday evenings) £12 per person per session. • FCCC Junior Ice Discount for all sessions £3.00 • Practice Ice remaining at £5.00 per person • Pairs ice remains at 50% of normal session cost. • Virtual Club ice session £9 per person. Cancellation Ice Policy: Our ice cancellation policy for season 2017/18 is as previously intimated: - • Cancellations made at least 2 weeks prior to the date the game(s) is due to be played will not be invoiced if the game is re-scheduled within 7 days from the date of cancellation. • If not re-arranged within 7 days, the game(s) will be charged for and invoiced accordingly. • Cancellations made within 2 weeks of the game(s) being played will be charged and invoiced accordingly. Competitions: We are looking to establish a number of new competitions in the new season and build on the success of several of our more established competitions. Agricar Leagues: The split of the Agricar Leagues and automatic entry into the FCCC Knockout competition has been a resounding success and something we would like to keep building on. With interest being shown from a number of new clubs’ keen to enter the Agricar League we would ideally like to increase this to 3 leagues with 10 teams in Division 1 & Division 2 and 8 teams in Division 3.
