PAYMENT PLANS ARE AVAILABLE


Members can organise a payment plan through Sean, our treasurer, by emailing, treasurer@bluejaysnetball.com.

You must be pre-approved for a payment plan before completing your registration/s. There is no option to utilise payment plans through Netball Connect due to previous issues with payment finalisation.

Pre-approved members will input a single use discount code at the checkout when registering in Netball Connect, which will result in a nil payment. The single use discount code will be provided by the Treasurer once approved for payment plan. Payment timeframes will be set with the Treasurer and payments must be complete prior to TBC. Incomplete payments will result in player not being able to take the court.
