Registration Fees

Fees to play in 2015 hockey consist of:

• Hockey Victoria fees, which go towards player insurance, administration costs at Hockey Victoria and Hockey Australia.
• Southern United Hockey Club fees, which cover the costs of running the club, costs of team entry into the Hockey Victoria competitions and very importantly putting money aside over a ten year period to replace our playing surfaces when they wear out.
• Umpiring charge for senior men only.  Each player will pay $30 ‘up front’, and when players umpire a game as rostered, they will receive their $30 back.

The overall cost of playing hockey (all of the fees above added together) is increasing in 2015, by about [6]%.  The club has made a decision to increase fees, which did not increase in 2013, or 2014.  We have done this as our operating costs have increased and as we need to contribute extra funds this year towards the upgrade of the Dendy Street facility.  We have also compared our fees with other clubs.  Even after the increase, our fees are considerably below other comparable clubs. In order to be completely transparent, a more detailed explanation and comparison with 2014 fees is on the SUHC web site at <

Payment timetables and, if you have difficulty paying

Fee payment for the Hockey Victoria elements are required before you play any matches or Hockey Victoria will not regard you as an eligible player. Southern United also expect all players to have paid prior to playing any matches.  We do understand that the cost of hockey is not insubstantial and we aim to be an inclusive club, so, if you have any difficulty in either the overall cost or timing of the Southern United elements of the fees, please speak with your section leader  who will work with you in absolute confidence to find an amicable way forward. Players who join the club more than half way through the season may be eligible for reduced fees at the discretion of the section leader.
