Kit Collection
Generally the booking secretary will make arrangements with you at point of booking confirmation or closer to the time of hire.
Collection in most cases will be from the district stores, however in some circumstances where back to back books happen it makes more sense for you to collect from the previous hirer… again the booking secretary will advise on who to contact if this happens.
NOTE: Kit Collection is by appointment ONLY, you will not be allowed to just pickup the keys.. so please don’t ask!
When do I pay
It is expected the booking will be paid for ASAP after having received confirmation of the booking being accepted.
If payment is not received and another request comes in for the same slot, you will be at risk of loosing it.
