SA Footy

just want to get an idea of what some clubs charge for beers on a thursday or saturday night at there club??

I personally think bout $3 a schooner and $4.50 a pint is fair, with say a happy hour on a saturday night for an hour after presentations with $2 schooners.
other things such as pre mix cans of bourbon or scotch $5-6, i think is fair!
also does your club have any deals with beers??
beer cards, we have beer cards which are $10 and after that your next 6 beers are $2, these can be stubbies, cans or schooners(maybe pints, not 100% sure on that one)
what other deals could there be??

I know it is important for the club to make money, but some of the prices I have seen, it would be just as cheap to drink at a night club!!!

@ HDFC:

$4 Stubbies or Cans of beer
$5.50-$6 Cans of Spirits
$4.50 Base Spirit + Mix

Then there's my shots bar, $4 Tequila (free if you do a 'tequila suicide' ), $6 Jagerbombs and whatever else I feel like doing for home-games. I make a mean cocktail for the ladies, my favourite being Blue Lagoons.

Always have a drink special of some kind for home games.

At our club:

$4 Pints (WED and Hahn Super Dry)
$4 Local Stubbies/Cans (WED, Pale, TED, Super Dry, VB etc)
$3.50 Light Stubbies/Cans
$4.50 Coopers Stout Stubbies
$5 Coronas
$6 Pre-Mix Cans
$4 Base Spirits w/mix (Scotch, Bourbon, Vodka, Rum)
$3 Schooners of Tap Spirits (vodka/raspberry, bourbon/coke, scotch/coke)
$2 Soft Drink Cans
$1.50 Soft Drink Pints

We've got a '100 Club' (VIP Social Membership) with about 40 guys. Pay $100 at the start of the year, free schooner of tap beer/pint of soft drink each day for the season, stubbie holder, random happy hours for '100 Club' members and a free '100 Club' raffle every home game.

I think thats fair & reasonable prices that all clubs should adopt.
There are alot of clubs that are over the top with prices such as $5.00 to $5.50 a stubbie or can which is rediculous, i know clubs have to survive but thats going to kill your club in the long run.
I've also seen the players at alot of clubs expect everything for nothing & always wanting $2 schooners all night which is very tough for clubs to do consistantly, alot of players today don't understand the needs of running a club.

The lads know it's cheaper than any pub or club, throw in a happy hour or two and they're laughing, then a sponsor slaps on a tab for the fellas and it's GOOOOOOOOODNIGHT!!!

there's more, can't remember off the top of my head

$20.00 bar cards gets you $22.00 worth of drinks

1/2 time of A's, discounted wine, bubbly, cruisers and strongbow for the ladies

All cheaper than our club.

Has anyone seen or heard of this Three Oaks Cider stuff. We just got it in at our club and it is great. think we are selling it cheaper than Stronbow also. good stuff, and i think it is made in SA also..

Usual beer prices for us, but we have a happy hour after Presentations for all the club to buy cheap pints. Seems to be a winner.

thats fair NM, I would love $2 schooners all night like you said but it isnt gonna make anything for the club!
I think the key to keeping people happy is happy hours once a night, make everything cheaper and keep everyone happy!!

is anyone undergoing the good sport club program? heccies have removed happy hours now because of it. also didnt have the mug but that got reinstated a few weeks ago but now you can only get 4 drinks bought for you

I will never complain about our prices again

$3.30 for all stubbies and cans

$5-$6 for premix spirts

unfortunatly our bar man never puts on a happy hour, any drink specials EVER and has been known to lack genuine common sense, such as the ladies night last year, only had 2 bottles of champas!

Prices above sound really good to me

Our Pints are $5.20
Stubbies about $5
Thats all I really drink

Think spirit + mix is about $5

We get about 3 free schooner tickets after the game tho

At Pt Districts they got Imperials of TED or WED for $5, they used to be $4.50 but put em up cause everyone was hammering them, still good value. TED stubbie $4.80 that's the only 2 I drink there
