Affiliations to the YCB
CLUBS
All CLUBS must pay an ECB fee of £12 per club ( payable to YCB through 1st X1 League).
TEAMS
Additionally each TEAM must pay a fee to YCB as follows :
1st team £10.00
additional teams £12.00 per team
So that overall a club with
ONE team pays £22.00
TWO teams £34.00
THREE teams £46.00 and so on .
WOMENS CLUBS
£12 ( OR £10 if affiliated through Mens Club as womens section ( not 18s Girls)
NOTES
The number of teams that must be affiliated is for the normal match day (ie the day the club fields most teams though where a 3rd X1 plays in a Sunday League and not on Saturdays this would make 3 team affiliations required).
The fee for non-league clubs is the same.
Of the YCB Team element 20% of the fee goes onwards to the Yorkshire Cricket Association and an additional 20% to the Area Cricket Councils and all the Womens fees go to Womens Cricket
PAYMENT
Payment is due and payable by 31st May 2010 and it is essential it is received by that date otherwise the YCB loses its grant monies from national sources.
Attention is also drawn to YCB Rule which will be strictly applied. Most importantly this means that clubs/ leagues whose fees are not paid by 31st May will have membership rights withdrawn.. You are advised to check the full rule. Failure to pay affects insurance, grant rights and competition entries etc.
It is hoped that Leagues will collect fees from the Clubs who have teams playing in that league . By doing this en bloc the League ensures all are affiliated and thus the League itself is affiliated. The League thus becomes entitled to take out insurance cover etc and is a voting member of YCA. Clubs should only send fees direct when their league does not do so en bloc
All remittances should be made payable to " Yorkshire Cricket Board" and forwarded to the Membership Secretary :
D Shuttleworth, 6 Whitehead Grove, BD2 3NN ( 01274-632933)
Leagues are asked to use the forms previously sent ( or contact Derek Shuttleworth for further copies) .
Where a Club is paying direct to YCB its remittance should be for all the teams it fields on its normal match day not covered by a league en-bloc affiliation and a statement indicating all the leagues played in should also be sent. Again a proforma has been sent to all clubs
ECB LEAGUE/CLUB AFFILIATION
Clubs and Leagues should see earlier circulars. Affiliation to ECB is through YCB who will send any forms to Leagues for the necessary assurances and details.
RESIGNATIONS
In accordance with the constitution, unless a club gives notice in writing to the Membership Secretary not later than 31st October in any year a resignation cannot be accepted unless current and past obligations have been met.
CLUB/LEAGUE OFFICIALS FORMS
Please ensure details of secretaries, Junior Contacts and Child Welfare Officers are sent to the YCB Admin Officer Brian Stone along with the agreements on Data Protection and Safe Hands policy issues. A form has been provided for this in February and is also on the website.
