Membership Costs & Fees
Ensuring Fair and Professional Service
​
Running an association involves various costs, and it is through donations, sponsorships, and member fees that we can offer fair and professional services to our members. Below, we outline the details of the annual membership fees and competition costs.
Annual Membership Fees
Schools or Institutions
​Schools or institutions are required to pay an annual membership fee of R1000.
Band Members
​Band members have an annual membership fee that varies based on the size of the group. The sliding scale is designed to assist larger groups in managing their costs. The fee structure is as follows:
-
0-30 Members: R100.00 per annum
-
31-50 Members: R75.00 per annum
-
51-70 Members: R50.00 per annum
-
71-99 Members: R25.00 per annum
-
100 or More Members: R10.00 per annum
For example, if you have 40 members, you will pay for the first 30 members at R100.00 each and the remaining 10 members at R75.00 each, totaling R3750.00.​
Competition Fees
Competitions require an entry fee of R500.00 per category per competition. If a band enters three categories, they must participate in all three categories at the regional level to qualify, resulting in a total fee of 6 * R500.00.
Payment Deadlines
All membership and competition fees are due by the end of June each year. Proof of payment must be sent to finances@sasba.online before the close of business on June 30th each year.
Subsidies
Subsidies are available for members already receiving government subsidies through their schools. To apply for a subsidy, the headmaster must write an official letter to SASBA requesting the subsidy and list the children receiving it. This request should be sent to chairman@sasba.online.
​
By adhering to these guidelines and timely payments, members help ensure that our association continues to thrive and provide valuable services.
