All boys & girls are required to become "Saturday Morning Members" (£700 per Season payable in two installments) & buy matchday kit/training top/Rain Jacket and tracksuit (£160).
The £700 covers Saturday training sessions for two hours over the course of the season from September - July (Usually 40 weekends, approx. £17.50p per week) and is our Yearly membership fee.
Additional midweek or extra weekend training outside of the Saturday 10am - 12noon sessions & league teams come at an additional cost.
At St. Johns Wood FC we believe that all players should be able to play for our club, irrespective of their financial situation and therefore are willing to discuss discounted term fees & payment plans. Please do not be afraid to get in touch!
