For successful trips to matches and to be
fair to all members, some common sense rules have been agreed.
These include but are not limited to:
 No
credit and all money paid in advance of travel, this includes
all costs, travel, accommodation and tickets.
Deposits
will have to be made to secure your place with full monies
payed closer to the time. All deposits are non-refundable.
We think this is the only fair way to stop the branch from
losing money by people pulling out.
If
you have payed all money for a trip and have to pull out,
for whatever reason, we will do our best to refund whatever
we can, eg price of match tickets or accommodation but we
cannot guarantee this or the amount that will be refunded.
Costs to the branch will have to be covered first, eg if we
can't get a refund for travel costs then we can't refund you.
First
come, first served basis. This is the only fair way for very
popular matches. Our regular place for accommodation (and
site sponsor) has 23 beds available and has guaranteed us
all 23 if we give him a months notice.
Ideally
all money should be payed weeks in advance. Match tickets
and accommodation can be payed for up to 7 days in advance
(at latest) as we need this time to ensure all monies are
collected, accounted for and have been transferred to the
relevant people in Blackburn. Travel costs will have to be
payed a full month ( or right away if match is less than a
month away), in advance. Booking of flights, ferries means
that your money has to be payed before a place can be booked
for you.
These rules are just common sense and although might seem
a bit harsh are necessary
