The three things we wanted to know

Where does the money go?

Of what this club spends, about 53% to coaching and staff, 33% to tournaments, travel and equipment, 9% to administration.

Read from the club's own filing, which lists what it spent by kind. The full split, year by year, is further down the page.

Is the club on solid ground?

The club took in more than it spent 2 years running. Its reserves would cover about 11 months of spending.

Fees rose 34% over that time while the reserve grew. Worth asking what the reserve is for.

Do players move on?

Revenue from families rose 34% from FY 2020 to FY 2025.

The club kept a surplus 2 years running; its reserves would cover about 11.1 months of spending. Fees have risen while reserves grew — worth asking the club what the reserve is for.
