A REMINDER TO CLUBS ABOUT SUBSCRIPTION CARD RULES
Taken from August 2017 Journal

Clubs are being reminded that Subscription Cards must have the
name and address of the issuing club clearly marked on them in
order to ensure doormen can implement the rules of the Union
when Associate Members are visiting clubs other than their own.
e Associate Card supplied by the Union clearly states: “An
Associate before being admitted to the Club must produce their
Subscription Card (showing that their current subscription to their
club has been paid).
Several instances across various branches have been reported of
Associate Members visiting other clubs but being unable to produce
a subscription card stating exactly what club they belonged to.
It appears that some clubs are simply issuing a Subscription Card
which shows that a payment has been made by the holder but not
which club they are actually a member of.
Ensuring that all members have the correct credentials will help
avoid ill-feeling and embarrassment when Associate Members visit
other CIU clubs, as they are perfectly entitled to do under the Union
rules.
