The Club have released more details of the new Booking System here 

There are still finer details still to be arrived but the link (thanks Harry) sets out how the new system will work.

I have closed the previous thread on when we will get details of the new booking system and opened this one to allow comments specifically on the new system rather than discussing what they might be.

I'm sure the Club will be very happy that this thread is doing the work that it is unable to do itself, by the members fine tuning the booking system and closing all loopholes. Unpaid voluntary work👍

And so enthusiastically, never leave a loop open that can be closed, it will be interesting to see how many extra pitches become available.

It will indeed but I think we will have to wait until 2023 before we see the real benefit, if there is one? It would seem that many bookings have already been made under the old system for 2022?

For later bookers the club could see a drop off in 2022. The lack of hardstandings and the fact they know they will end up on grass, may put some off. It would me, unless I was booking when the weather conditions were known. It could even see cancellations once the pitch type allocation for early bookers is carried out. Those that end up with a grass pitch,  may decide to look elsewhere.

Absolutely ,and in our situation ,we may well need short term  cancellations  as will quite a few others I would think, ,so until the club are more open with how the new booking system will work in that situation with deposits ,it may well curtail quite a few members,

And as posted they either have not thought it through properly and the forums are being monitored for more information that has still not yet been,considered ,or even thought about

And that is why we as members are still not being given all the info if it is just a couple of months away from implementation

Having just received our new membership cards, I am surprised that the club makes no mention to the new rulings.

Surely this would be an opportunity as so many still will not realise the many changes and additional costs.

The Newsletter sent out 4th January mentions the changes, and gives a link to the relevant information on the website.

It has been in the club magazine, but very little as most would expect it to be as a headlines
