i'd pay that knowing i can go to any fita in the world and know i'm insured to shoot.

the majority of GNAS staffing is volunteers, just like the 3/4 people that can be bothered to go to set up your Fita star tournies.

how many club members dont go to there clubs to set up. with the thoughts of"i dont do comps, so why should i help" or oh sorry i'm working that weekend
happens everywhere

pete,..........£33 peace of mind
If the GNAS insurance follows the general costs per member of other sports. The cost per member will be in the region of £1 to £1.50.
Why not have an online mag only and save thousands on publishing costs as I bet there is a lot of waste.

Thunk mentioned earlier about increasing the fee's by £10 to fund the office. I'm OK with the increase but £10 each x 26-30,000. How many staff do you want? What rate of pay?
As with any business it's about looking at improving how you function without extra costs. Only when all savings and improvements have been looked at and achieved will more money be asked for. If the need is proven there is a 50% chance the finances will be approved.
