Club Fees 2024
The Executive Committee has made the commitment to not increase any Club fees for the 2024 season. Please note Club fees do not include the Hockey Australia levy, any gate/turf fees or umpiring costs.
Volunteering - this season once again those unable to volunteer at minimum of two club commitments will pay an extra $75 to cover club expenses. The fee is payable at registration. For those available to help simply choose the payment class with club volunteering and we will be in contact closer to the season with a survey so we can allocate you to a volunteer role of your preference where possible.
Club fees are required to be paid up front at registration. Those unable to pay upfront should contact treasurer@vicparkpanthers.com.au for information and instructions on how to register and make payment arrangements. Any fees outstanding may result in players being ineligible for team selection. The Club is all about playing and enjoying hockey so this will only be a last resort if no efforts have been made to remain financial within the club.
Discounts
As per prior seasons, the club offers discounted fees to Year 13s, Goal Keepers, Life Members and Sponsors. Please contact treasurer@vicparkpanthers.com.au to receive your discount code PRIOR to registration.
This season, coaching discounts are on offer to playing members subject to the grades being coached. Please reach out to women@vicparkpanthers.com.au or men@vicparkpanthers.com.au or juniors@vicparkpanthers.com.au to discuss your coaching options!
In addition to coaching discounts, the club is seeking a Canteen Coordinator who will receive 100% discount on club fees for you, or your child! Please reach out to one of the team above for more information.
KidSport
Victoria Park Xavier Hockey Club is an approved KidSport club. KidSport enables eligible children to participate in community sport by offering financial assistance of up to $150 per year towards club fees. To find out if your child is eligible for this funding, please visit the KidSport page on the DLGSC website. If your KidSport voucher is approved, you will receive an email with a unique validation code for the voucher.

If you can only play casually, the club offers a 5 game membership which can be purchased along with the reduced Hockey Australia Levy.
Donations & Sponsorship
Looking for a potential tax deduction? A great way to help the club out is to donate or become a sponsor.
Donations - As part of the registration process those members with the ability to donate between $50 and $200 can do so.
Sponsorship - There are many sponsorship options available for players and/or businesses. Click HERE for current packages or please contact sponsorship@vicparkpanthers.com.au
Juniors playing regular Seniors
The Club encourages Juniors to play Seniors hockey. If Juniors know they will be playing seniors at the time of registration, please ensure this 'add-on' is selected at registration. Those unsure of senior game time will be invoiced during the season when the player becomes a regular player - which the club considers to be 9 or more games.
Refunds
Requests for refunds must be made to the Treasurer in writing, and will be considered according to the circumstances. The club is under no obligation to grant refunds of any fees.
