Understanding that gridiron can be an expensive sport for a player in their first year we are instituting a new initiative from 2009.
Raiders rent, try buy.
It works like this. Whatever money you have paid in rental comes off your residual for the purchase of equipment. There will be a storage fee incurred for every year before purchase.
Option 1
Buy your equipment outright year 1 = $220
Option 2
Rent year 1=$80, buy year 2 cost =$170. Total $250
Option 3
Rent 2 years=$160,buy year 3cost=$120. Total $280
Option 3
Rent 3 years=$240. Buy year 4 cost=$70. Total $310
Option 4
Rent 4 years=$320. Equipment is yours to keep.
There will also be an additional $100 fully refundable deposit due every year for rental. Deposit will be refunded at the end of each season on return of equipment or can go towards purchase for next year.
Equipment includes 1 helmet, 1 pair shoulder pads, and 1 set 7-piece lower pant pad set.
This will make the decision on whether to buy or not easier.
These prices are an indication only. If our costs increase for sourcing equipment these prices will have to reflect that but hopefully we have enough flexibility to cover fluctuations in exchange rate and the like. All equipment is reconditioned before purchase and will be kept to the highest possible standard.
New equipment is an option and we will assist in the purchase where possible. Brand new equipment will cost around $400.
Please contact Equipment manger Darryl Jones to discuss your options on 0400809399 or via email at dazcandoit@yahoo.com.au.
Hope to see you all at training
