Membership

About to sign up with the Cobras? Great to see you on the team!

We have four types of memberships: full, student, limited and supporter.

Basically, a full and student membership includes unlimited access to training sessions and matches, whereas a limited membership is restricted to playing a maximum of two official domestic matches. Should you join the Cobras when there is only one (or none) official match left, then we advise you to sign up as a limited member, and renew your membership with a full memberships the year after.

If you just want to give the sport a try, that’s possible too: we will not charge you the first few sessions! However, playing a match requires you to be registered with us. Should you want to try a match, then we suggest you to become a limited membership at minimum. You can always upgrade your membership if you are hooked up.

A supporter membership is meant for those who want to support the Cobras financially. Basically, this is a donation to help developing the club. This is ideally for (former) players who want to stay in touch.

Now then, what is actually included in your full/limited/student membership?

  • Weekly training
  • Entitled to play Domestic Competitions
  • If selected, entitled to play International Competitions
  • NRLB Membership fee
  • Kit during matches (kits must be returned at the end of the match though)

So what costs are involved with the membership fees?

A full membership costs €80 per year (students are entitled to pay a €50 fee instead), and a limited membership fee costs €40 per year. Payments can be done in cash with our training staff or board members, or via bank transfer. Upon signing up, you need to pay at least 50% within two weeks of submission. Multiple instalments are of course possible.

First year full members are entitled for a 50% discount.

Note: increase of fees in 2023. Full: 90, Limited: 50, Student 55, Supporter: 20.

OK, so how I can register?

Awesome! Click here to register via ClubBase. We will check your submission for approval and we’ll register you with the NRLB as well if satisfactory. 

From what age can I join?

Although we have qualified coaches, we do not yet offer regular training sessions for children and youngsters aged 17 or younger. We work mostly with students and (young) adults. Should you have an idea how we can further engage into youth development, please do tell us!

Note: At the moment there is only one national competition/division for seniors, which allows players from the age of 16 to participate.

Do you have a women’s team?

We unfortunately do not yet have a women’s team. If you want to help us out, please do contact us!

I’m not really certain, who can I contact for more information?

You can e-mail to info [at] amsterdamcobras.nl or just send a PM via Facebook. Naturally, our training sessions in the weekends are open to the public, since we generally train at Beatrixpark. Check our training schedule and just ask a question. We’ll be delighted to answer your questions!
