ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTIONS
Members are reminded that their subscriptions are due without notice on
1st January, and those who do not pay by direct debit are asked to ensure
prompt payment of the correct amount. Any Member whose subscription
has not been paid in full by 1st March will be required to pay a surcharge
of 25% of the amount outstanding at that date.
7MEMBERSHIP PASSES
This booklet is not a Membership Pass. Passes are issued annually,
before the start of the cricket season, and must be signed immediately on
receipt. (Unsigned Passes are not valid.) Passes are strictly for Members’
personal use and are not transferable. Any breach of this regulation
will be regarded by the Committee as a serious abuse of membership
privileges and appropriate action will be taken accordingly.
If a Member’s Pass has been lost or destroyed, a Duplicate Pass may be
issued on payment of £10. This charge, which is to cover administration
costs, was introduced following an increase in the number of requests
from Members who had lost or mislaid their Passes. The charge is waived,
however, if the Pass was lost as a consequence of theft.
Members who have left their Passes at home, or at a place of work,
may be issued with a Temporary Pass, for a single day’s use only, on
payment of a £5 administrative charge. If the Member is away from home
for a number of days, and is unable to retrieve his or her Pass, a complete
Duplicate Pass will be issued at a charge of £10.
MEMBERSHIP CATEGORIES
A Full or Associate Member who wishes to be placed in any category
of membership, other than Inner Town membership, must make a written
application to the Chief Executive & Secretary before the commencement
of a calendar year, the application to be in respect of such calendar year
and may, with the exception of applications for the category of School
Staff membership, be for subsequent calendar years also. A Member who
fails to make such an application in respect of a calendar year shall be
treated as an Inner Town Member for that calendar year.
If a Member has already previously applied and been accepted into a
different category of membership, he or she will remain in that category
unless his or her circumstances subsequently change.
The requirement for School Staff Members to confirm their continued
eligibility for that category on an annual basis still applies.
CHANGE OF ADDRESS
In accordance with M.C.C. Rule 3.18, Members’ changes of address
are to be notified in writing as they occur. The Club accepts no liability
for the consequences of correspondence going astray owing to an incorrect
address.
8ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
The Annual General Meeting will take place on Wednesday, 2nd May
2018. Full details of the 2018 A.G.M. will be sent with the Annual Report.
CANDIDATES FOR MEMBERSHIP
In accordance with Regulation III.i, a Full or Senior Member may act as
Proposer, Seconder or Sponsor for only one Candidate in any calendar
year, provided that: (a) if a Playing Member, he or she was elected before
30th September 2016; or (b) if a Non-Playing Member, he or she was
elected before 30th September 2013.
Probationary Cricket Candidates
Candidates with strong cricketing qualifications may apply to be
included in the list of Probationary Cricket Candidates. Applicants must
be between 16 and 40 years of age, and their names must be entered in the
Candidates’ Book by 30th September, at the latest, of the year preceding
that in which they wish to play, in order to be considered for inclusion
on the list for the following season. If accepted for the list they will be
asked to play in such number of qualifying matches as the Committee
may decide and, if their performances are satisfactory, their election to the
Club may be brought forward.
Candidates for Out-Match Membership
Candidates for Out-Match membership must be between 16 and 40
years of age, and applications must be returned by 30th September at the
latest for consideration to be given for the Candidate’s inclusion in the
following year’s list of Probationary Cricket Candidates.
Candidates for Out-Match membership must play cricket to a good club
1st XI standard. If accepted for the list they will be asked to play in such
number of qualifying matches as the M.C.C. Committee may decide and,
if their performances are satisfactory, their election to the Club may be
brought forward.
An Out-Match Candidate may apply, at any time, for his or her name to
be transferred on to the list of Candidates for Full membership, subject
to the payment of the balance of the Registration Fee applicable to
ordinary Candidates at the date of such application. If the Candidate fails
to qualify as an Out-Match Member and has not, in the meantime, opted
9to transfer to the list of Candidates awaiting Full membership, his or her
candidature will be cancelled. Furthermore, if a Candidate for Out-Match
membership does not wish his or her name to also be placed on to the
ordinary Candidates’ waiting list, he or she will be ineligible for Associate
membership.
In the event of being elected as an Out-Match Member, the Candidate
would be required to play regularly for the Club, or suffer the possibility
of having his or her membership withdrawn.
Endorsement of Candidates
All Candidates must be endorsed by one of the following: a current
member of the M.C.C. Committee; a current member of another
committee; or a current Area Representative appointed by the M.C.C.
Committee to assist in the organisation of Out-Match cricket. The M.C.C.
Committee also reserves the right to appoint additional Endorsers within
the British Isles and overseas. Endorsers may propose, second, sponsor or
endorse an unlimited number of Candidates in any calendar year. M.C.C.
will seek confirmation from the Endorser that he or she is willing to act in
this capacity. After the process has been completed, each Candidate will
be notified in writing of his or her entry in the Club’s Candidates’ Book.
RECIPROCAL ARRANGEMENTS AT
OVERSEAS GROUNDS
The Committee has organised reciprocal arrangements with 10 overseas
clubs – Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth, Lahore Gymkhana,
Hong Kong, Singapore, The Cricket Club of India and Western Province
Cricket Club. In addition, the Committee has approved reciprocal
arrangements with the following clubs (which are not cricket clubs): the
Pretoria Country Club, the Kelvin Grove Club (Cape Town), the Durban
Club and the Rand Club (Johannesburg).
Full Members paying short visits overseas may make use of certain
facilities at those clubs on production of the appropriate card of
introduction, which is available from the M.C.C. Membership Office.
Full information should be obtained, prior to travel, from the M.C.C.
Membership Office (020 7616 8660 or membership@mcc.org.uk).
10ROVER TICKETS – MAJOR MATCHES In accordance with regulation III.d, for major matches Members may introduce guests into the Members’ Friends’ Enclosures by means of Tickets which must be purchased in advance. Tickets for Reserved Seats in the Members’ Friends’ Enclosures At the 2009 Annual General Meeting, Members agreed that certain sections of the Members’ Friends’ Enclosures would be made available as reserved seating on selected major match days on a permanent basis. In order to sit in the reserved section on such days, Members must purchase a ticket for themselves, as well as for their guests with whom they must sit. The days on which such reservations will be in operation during the 2018 season are as follows: • England v. Pakistan Test Match (First Day) – Thursday 24th May • England v. Pakistan Test Match (Second Day) – Friday 25th May • England v. India Test Match (First Day) – Thursday 9th August • England v. India Test Match (Second Day) – Friday 10th August • England v. India Test Match (Third Day) – Saturday 11th August Rover Tickets for Unreserved Seats in the Members’ Friends’ Enclosures Members may introduce guests into the unreserved sections on all major match days by means of Rover Tickets purchased in advance. Members will be admitted to the unreserved sections of the Members’ Friends’ Enclosures on production of their membership passes. Pavilion Admission Tickets for T20 Blast Matches For T20 Blast matches in 2018, Members will be permitted to introduce into the Pavilion one guest, over the age of 12 years, who must be in possession of a Pavilion Admission Ticket. For each T20 Blast match there will be a set number of such Pavilion Admission Tickets available, which will also admit to the Members’ Friends’ Enclosures. Senior and Associate Members In 2018, Senior and Associate Members may purchase Rover Tickets for the following days: • England v. Pakistan Test Match (Third Day) — Saturday 26th May (maximum of 2 Tickets) • England v. Pakistan Test Match (Fourth Day) — Sunday 27th May (maximum of 2 Tickets) 11

For the T20 Blast matches, Senior and Associate Members will be
permitted to introduce into the Pavilion one guest over the age of 12 years,
who must be in possession of a Pavilion Admission Ticket.
MISUSE OF TICKETS
In recent years, the Committee has received reports of Rover Tickets
being sold by unauthorised ticket agents and by individuals on the
pavement outside the Ground. Each case has been investigated separately,
and the Committee has taken disciplinary action against Members found
responsible.
The Committee is certain that all Members would support such action
being taken, since the purchase of tickets for the Members’ Friends’
Enclosures is considered to be a very important privilege of membership.
Tickets for the Members’ Friends’ Enclosures are solely for use by
Members, their relatives and personal friends, and the Committee insists
that Members ensure that the Tickets allocated to themselves and their
guests are regarded as strictly non-transferable, in order to safeguard
Members’ privileges.
MEMBERS’ QUEUES ON MAJOR MATCH DAYS
Queuing arrangements for Associate and Senior Members
At its September 2016 meeting, the Membership and General Purposes
committee agreed that the trial arrangement under which Associate
Members were not permitted to stand in Members’ Queues would not
12be continued. Therefore, during the 2018 season, Associate and Senior
Members will be allowed to stand in Members’ Queues on days when they
are entitled to free admission.
Queue Cards
In response to comments made by Members regarding queuing
arrangements, in particular the unfair practice of queue-jumping, a trial of
Queue Cards took place in the unaccompanied Members’ Queues at the
Grace and North Gates during the 2015 season, and operated throughout
the 2016 and 2017 seasons. The arrangement was felt to be successful, and
the Committee has agreed for the system to continue on all international
match days in 2018.
Each Member will be provided with a Queue Card, corresponding to
their respective place in the queue, which will be given up to one of the
Club’s staff on entry to the Ground. Under this arrangement, a Member
without a Queue Card shall not be admitted to Lord’s until all Members
with Queue Cards have entered.
Arrangements for Members’ Queues may be subject to change at
short notice to reflect advice from the Metropolitan Police in the best
interests of Members’ safety and security.
