Fees
Where applicable, the NSWRU will set the annual renewal (subscription) fee each year.
The NSWRU may charge interest and fees on overdue subscriptions.
The NSWRU may suspend a Member’s rights while his or her subscription (and any interest or fee) remains unpaid beyond the due date.
If the annual subscription is not paid within six months of the due date, the NSWRU may cancel the membership.
The NSWRU will set ticket prices each year.
The ticketing agency will set a booking fee, processing and mailing fee. These costs are incurred by the Member and are on top of any NSWRU renewal (subscription) and ticket package prices.
Seating Allocation System for Matches
The order of ticket booking priority for NSWRU fixtures is as follows:
-
NSWRU Life and Waratah Members
-
Blue Blood Season Members
-
True Blue Season Members
-
True Blue Super 14 Members
-
TRYpack Members
-
Super Fan Season Members
-
Super Fan Super 14 Members
-
TAH Patrol Super 14 Members
Sitting With Fellow Members:
When booking seats, Members may request that a group of fellow Members and their guests be seated together.
For group seating, booking forms for all Members must be submitted together.
Please keep in mind that a group-seating request may disadvantage your seating allocation. Please do not mix package requests if ordering as a group. i.e. If a Member purchases a True Blue Season Package and wishes to sit with a Member who purchases a True Blue Super 14 Package, both Members’ seats will be allocated as a True Blue Super 14 Package.
Investec Super 14 Finals
“Priority access to purchase tickets in the event of a home Semi Final at Sydney Football Stadium or home Final at ANZ Stadium”
Should NSWRU host a home Semi-Final at The Sydney Football Stadium or home Final at ANZ Stadium, Season Members will be contacted regarding priority booking arrangements.
Due to the change of venue and different seating configuration available to NSWRU at ANZ Stadium, ‘same seat allocations’ will not be available at this venue.
Waratah Travel Packages and Away Fixture Tickets
“Priority access to Waratah Travel packages and away fixture tickets”
NSWRU, in partnership with We Love Rugby, will endeavour to provide travel packages to HSBC Waratah away fixtures throughout the 2009 Season. As these events are not hosted by NSWRU, tickets will be acquired through the hosting union in the best available seating allocationprovided to the NSWRU.
Conditions of Purchase
All bookings are final and non-refundable.
Please remember: 1 package = 1 seat; there is a limit of 4 passes/packages per Member, or 1 Family Package Only one Membership per form
It is a condition of sale that tickets to NSWRU fixtures or ARU Test Matches played in Australia may not, without the prior written consent of the ARU/NSWRU, be resold at a premium nor used for advertising, promotion or other commercial purposes (including competitions or trade promotions) or to enhance the demand for other goods or services. If a ticket is sold or used in breach of this condition, the bearer of the ticket will be denied admission.
Member/Season Cards
Issue and Use of Membership Cards
On purchase of your Membership you will be issued with a Membership Card. This card is issued for identification and seat allocation purposes.
On the rear of the card you will find your details and seating allocations as well as a barcode. Your card is your ticket for NSWRU fixtures played in Sydney. On entry to the venue your card will be scanned. If you purchase two packages, you will be issued with a second card for your guest, which should be used in the same way.
Please check the fixtures listed on the rear of the card, which pertain to your chosen package. If you arrive at a Match that is not included in your ticket you will not be allowed entry and asked to purchase a ticket or leave the venue.
These cards must be carried with you when attending Matches and must be presented upon request.
Lost or Stolen Cards
A Member must immediately report a lost or stolen card, as it must be deactivated. A new card will be issued to the Member, upon repayment of the replacement fee of $25.00.
Please contact the NSWRU Membership Department on 1300 733 899, email membership@nswrugby.com.au or fax to 02 9368 0452.
Cards Forgotten on Match Days
Where a Membership Card or a guest card is forgotten on a Match Day, the Member will be required to complete the administration formalities and a ‘Day Pass’ will be issued.
If a relative or guest is using your card(s) please ensure they have a written letter from you, the Member, providing permission to use your seating for that particular match.
Please go to the NSWRU Membership Box Office window at Sydney Football Stadium or ANZ Stadium to speak with a member of the Membership Team.
Misuse of Cards
If the NSWRU becomes aware of the misuse of cards, the Member’s rights may be suspended and/or the Membership may be cancelled, at the discretion of the NSWRU.
Faulty Cards
A Member should advise the Membership Department if a card is faulty and a replacement card will be issued without charge.
Administration of Membership
Transfer of Membership
Season Memberships and seating allocations are nontransferable.
Termination of Membership
A Membership may be terminated for failure to pay annual subscriptions or for failure to comply with the conditions set by the NSWRU. A Membership may also be cancelled due to the misconduct of a Member or their guest.
Late Renewal of Membership
Members must complete the renewal and priority booking form and send it back to the NSWRU by the due date specified on the form. If a form is received after that date the privileges held by certain Members will no longer be available. If you are a Blue Blood Season, True Blue Season or Super Fan Season Member and wish to retain your seating, you must return your forms by the due date in order to do so. If your forms are received after the due date your seating will be allocated on a best available basis after Members have been processed.
