Player Injury Scheme ‘Reward Rebate’
After many years of requiring additional funding from Central Council to meet payments on an annual basis, the player injury scheme is on target to be in a position where the fund can pay a reward rebate back to clubs.
If your county and club is a net contributor to the fund in 2011 you may be in line to receive a rebate in September 2012.
- To qualify 75% of the Clubs in your county must be registered and have their subscriptions paid by March 31, 2012.
- Your County and Club must be a net contributor to the injury fund in 2011.
- The rebate will be issued in Sept 2012 proportionate to your subscriptions and that of your county.
- Only Clubs who complete registration and pay their subscriptions by March 31 will qualify for the rebate.
As an additional incentive, all Clubs who complete registration by March 31 gain entry into a draw where one Club per County will win Free Athlete screening including fitness test with follow-up screening and testing for up to 32 of your members. Screening will be provided by Sports Surgery Clinic (SSC), Dublin and will take place in Croke Park Stadium on a weekend with a contribution also made towards travel and lunch expenses.
This is an excellent opportunity for your Club so get registrations and subscriptions in early and on-time.
