Registration - Frequently Asked Questions
Why is registration done online only?
As well as collecting the necessary subscription, we use the details collected on the Membership Portal to register you with Leinster Rugby/IRFU and to manage club communications for the year.
Every detail you enter is used so please be careful when entering names and dates of birth, etc. There are often mistakes made at registration which cause confusion later.
Payment Plan
To ease the burden of paying at once, the club offers you the option to pay your membership subs in instalments.
When you get to the payment page, you will have a choice to
- Pay the total in full up front, or else,
- Pay a deposit followed by three or four instalments on same date every month. The instalments will be scheduled for the same date every month, starting one month after the deposit is paid. All the payment dates will be outlined to you, when you choose the option to pay in instalments.
What if I don't want to register now?
To put it simply, if a player is not registered online then he/she is not officially part of the age group. You can't play or participate in training as the player may not be insured with the club.
I can't afford to register right now. What should I do?Please contact the Club Secretary & Registrar in confidence,
secretary@coolminerugby.ie / 087 720 5887, and they can discuss some arrangements with you.
What are all these membership options?On the
Coolmine Membership Registration Portal you are presented with a list of membership packages. There are 9 options in total, starting with packages for individual adults, followed by packages for individual children, and finishing with three family packages at the bottom. Please read through the packages to see which suits you the best. If there are more than two people in a family joining, be that multiple kids, or an adult coach along with a child, then please use one of the family packages at the bottom to get the best value.
Are there discounts for multiple mini and youth players in a family as in previous years?Yes there are still discounts for families. If you are registering a family, please review the three family packages at the bottom of the list and choose the best one for your family. A family can consist of an adult with a child/children, or just multiple children. Which family package you choose is driven by the number of youths (players aged U13 - U18) in your family
Why are youths dearer than minis
We supplement our club coaches, with external coaches for our youth players (U13 - U18). To re-coup the cost of bringing in this external coaching expertise, we charge a coaching levy. Where there is one youth member it is €60 dearer, for two or more youths the levy is €100.
Why am I asked for Parent/Guardian details in some categories?
When you add an U6 - U18 player, you will also be asked for the details of one Parent/Guardian.
What documentation do I need to provide with my application?
If you are registering underage players for the first time, the system will ask for supporting documenation.
- For mini players (U6-U12), you must provide state issued proof of identity, such as a birth certificate or passport
- For youth players (U13-U18), you must provide both state issued proof of identity, such as a birth certificate or passport AND a current passport style head and shoulders photo.
Why do we need details such as previous rugby club, nationality, and next of kin/emergency contact?
Some of this information is required by the IRFU and Leinster Rugby and the latter is in case of emergency.
