PAYMENT DIRECTIVES for Fees, Fines, Charges etc:
This item is additional to the "Standard Code of Rules" as issued, to the league, by the BCFA. It is included by the Solihull and District Oakbourne League within the copy of the handbook that is then returned to BCFA, as is requested by them of all their affiliate members, to reside within their files.
27. Without exception, all fines, fees, and charges due from member clubs must be paid directly to the League Treasurer unless special permission is given by the League Treasurer himself for clubs to pay specific items to his representative.
A receipt will only be issued by The League Treasurer, or by his own specially appointed representative. Payments made to members of the council, without permission of the League Treasurer, will not be recognised by the Council as a "payment made" to the league.
Clubs must be aware that payments made in an incorrect manner, as outlined above, may result in the charges deemed to be still due from the club.
