GUIDELINES FOR INTER-COUNTY EXPENSES
Home
GENERAL
Support
for the county by players, captains and organisers is very much appreciated, but
please bear in mind that funding of county teams comes from league team entry
fees and the county's share of club affiliation fees. There is no bottomless pit
of cash so costs must
be kept to
a minimum.
SRA
inter-county regulations require all players to be individual or family SRA
members before playing, or
that non-members pay their subscriptions to the host county organiser
during the weekend. It is the responsibility of the captain or manager
to ensure that this rule is complied with as failure to do so will result in a
deduction from expenses reimbursed at the relevant rate, currently £29 for
adults. (The same amount is deducted by the SRA from the county's share
of club affiliation fees if non-members play for a county team).
A report
of the weekend and a copy of the results (including SRA membership details)
together with receipts for expenses must be sent to the Treasurer before payment
will be
made. If
these guidelines are unclear, please contact the Treasurer before spending
money.

FIXTURES |

|
Courts
|
Rates to be negotiated with
hosting club and agreed with the Treasurer
(currently Paul Drakes 07796 997361) at least two weeks before the
fixture, unless the national SRA gives less notice that we are hosting.
Free courts are obviously preferred. |
|
Food
|
One
meal to be provided for players (max. 6 per team), managers
(juniors only), and officials where applicable. Cost to be agreed with
Treasurer at least two weeks before
fixture. A ticket system to the value of the cheapest hot meal available has
worked well at junior weekends. |

Officials
|
Arrange through the Referees'
Co-ordinator. |

FIXTURES |
|
|
Travel
|
Based
on two cars per team at 10.65p per mile on a reasonably direct route given
by a planner such as Multimap. |
|
Accommodation |
Generally paid for a maximum of six players sharing. Contribution from
county funds will not normally be more than £25 per person per night.
Additional costs of single
rooms and of partners will be at individual players' expense. Only one night
will be funded unless it would be
necessary to set out well before 8am in order to arrive at a reasonable
time. Overnight stays will not be
funded unless the fastest journey time according to the route planner is
significantly more than 90 minutes. A
contribution of £5 per person towards
the cost of food may be made. |
|
Other
|
If the support is not agreed
with the treasurer before travelling, these
principles will be applied retrospectively in the absence of good reasons to
the contrary. Division between team members and drivers will be entirely at
the discretion of the captain or manager. |
