Honor System
Recently, I
noticed some players are forgetting to pay the drop-in fee ($8) for either Open
Play or Club League. (There's just one fee for both Open Play and or League
play). We all forget sometimes, it
happens to me too frequently these days but I have an excuse, I'm old.
Couple of
years ago, I changed the fee system from monthly membership to pay-as-you-play
because player demographics have changed from mostly kids who have time to
play/train nearly every weekend to mostly adults who has more varied weekend
schedules. But with the pay-as-you-play, I found it disruptive for me to stop
each time someone comes in to collect the fees. For the size of our club, it
doesn't make sense to hire someone to collect the fees or ask for a volunteer
so, I have the Honor System; I trust the players to make their own change if
they need to and pay the fees as they come in, and it have been working. But recently,
some are forgetting too frequently.
The honor
system is not just trust but also fairness. I like the system.
Please don't
forget.
