As you may be aware, Irish Squash are still awaiting some clubs’ affiliation payment for the 2023/24 season. There are two payments, the CLUB affiliation of €120 (£110 for NI clubs) and then INDIVIDUAL PLAYERS affiliation (see the affiliation flow chart)
Irish Squash understands that some clubs may not have their official numbers of players to be able to submit and pay for their individual members affiliation, but we are requesting immediate payment of the €120 CLUB affiliation fee. This fee covers your club with insurance and going forward, Irish Squash will be unable to approve tournaments and events in clubs that have not paid their €120 CLUB Affiliation fee.
Massive thank you to those clubs who have already provided the club affiliation fee as well as their list of members and their individual fees for the season.
Finally, a reminder to clubs who said they would send us their list of members to get their official list of members as soon as they have them to ensure there are no issues with tournament eligibility and that these players are covered by Irish Squash insurance. These can be sent to [email protected]
