Again the use of the word affiliate but nobody seems willing to define what it means. Is it just pay £40 and get your name on the CS website or is there more to it?
As for grading fees, it seems most who want to introduce them are happy to have them waived for affiliation. I am left concluding that raising cash from grading fees is therefore not the objective if they are willing not to impose it. Surely raising £120 in total from the potential affiliation of NEJCA, SJC and LJC isn't what this is all about either? While that's nice to have, it's not making a huge impact on the CS budget.
Is it really all about forcing affiliation from the junior organisations and this is the only way that it can be done?
