Stage 3. Purchase Club Membership
If you are not returned to the home page after registration, then select ‘Dashboard’ from the dropdown menu from the profile image in the top right hand corner.
Before you start, check you can see everyone in your family.
The Family and friends area should show all the family members you can purchase memberships for.
To qualify for Sibling and social membership discounts the transaction must be made from the parent profile that is linked to all the players. If your children are split across two parents then use the ‘Add player’ option to assign all your players to one parent account and proceed with your order from within that profile. If you have any problems then do email oldcolfeians.gms.help@gmail.com before you carry on and we will help.
What memberships and items can I purchase?
YOUTH Player memberships – Discount of £20 per Sibling if purchased at the SAME TIME
Adult/Parent Social Membership or 200 club Monthly Lottery These are optional and not only help our club financially but also help keep our players subs as low as possible.

(No need to renew if this is already set up)
NEW THIS YEAR…You can now also add any Kit you may need! (Any items not listed can be bought from the club shop in person) Select ‘Add on’s’ to access kit options.
How to buy Membership
- In the Family and Friends area – Select the Person you are buying for

NOTE: Players memberships need to be added against their name and not the parents name. Discounts will automatically be calculated in your basket when you check out.
How to check out
Select Checkout and choose your Payment Method, then click ‘Pay Now’
Payment options
Select ‘Online Card’ – to use Credit Card
Select ‘Direct Debit’ – to use Debit card
(the full payment will then be taken directly from your bank as a one off payment)
Note 1: If you have either 200 club Lottery or Social Club memberships in your basket then the TOTAL amount will need to paid using ‘Direct Debit’. and you will be prompted to set up a Direct Debit Mandate. The first months payment will be for the full total showing (Player memberships, social, 200 club kit etc.) but then will revert to just monthly payments for social or 200 club for subsequent months.
Note 2: If you have purchased social or 200 club memberships it may show a quantity of 2 and enter double the price. Don’t worry, this is normal if you are checking out in the middle of the month as the system will take a payment for this month and the next. It will then revert to just 1 payment going forward.
