Player Payments

[God is an Englishman]

The point is, why bother having the rules if people are going to knowingly and deliberately breach them when they understand that is it impossible to police? Why not utilise a better 'leveller' such as a points cap?

excuse the ignorance, but how would a points cap work?

and how would you possibly police that either?

Points cap - sounds like a yank/afl thing to me.

While on the topic of breaching rules, do clubs need licenses to sell food and liquor in SA?

liquor definatly yes

[Randoman]

And it needs to be sold (or at least overseen) by someone with an RSA badge

Incorrect on a technicality.

But yes you do need a licence. You even need a licence to play music and have the TV on.

I know as a fact that clubs from Saturday Div 1 and Sunday Div 1-3 provide payments for players.

It was reported on here that last year one club paid players in Saturday Div 2. This wouldn't surprise me.

Hey Kitch - are you sure teams from Sat Div 1 pay players?

I've been a a div 1 team for a while now and have friends in other teams and most that I know dont pay................

I could be completely wrong though.........

Unfortunately at some clubs the loyal players are the last to find out

I would also like to know where the technicality is? As far as I knew any person serving liqour in SA is responsible for the patron purchasing such liqour (if found out any sports or social club caught serving without said licence would soon lose any licence they hold).

So, the punishment for serving without a licence is that you lose your licence.

And a fine, etc...

Yeh what's this technicality? I know at our club we need to have people who hold their RSA

Its how the not for profit organisation is set up as an incorportation. Ours was changed on advice from the board to rearrange it. It means that every year we need to submit details of our entire committee to the licencing board. The issue is, if someone has a record, then there might have an issue.

[quote] Is that really an issue for you Kitchimo, it certainly doesn't affect my daily life. As someone who has been paid in the past to play, I gave all of it back to their major sponsor - the local pub. [/quote

What club would bother playing God is an Englishman to play? Cant be a club in this country..

Fair enough. We have plenty of RSA people around so it is not an issue for us, and they're very simple to get hold of.
