We plan to run at least one hospitality draw each season for 10 members, and normally host two 'Meet the Manager' and two 'Legends Q&A' evenings per year. As there are far fewer Plus than Standard members, Plus members have a much better chance in Plus-only draws. Members who signed up as Premium during Buy The Buds continue to receive the same benefits as Plus. SMiSA reserves the right to amend benefits if necessary.

Join from abroadAbout signing up
Your monthly payments require a Direct Debit mandate, processed by GoCardless — the worldwide industry-leader.
When you click Sign up, you'll be taken to the registration page of our membership system, VeryConnect. Enter your essential details there — most other fields are optional and can be filled in later.
You'll then be taken to the secure GoCardless site to create your Direct Debit mandate. GoCardless will forward it to your bank for processing.
By signing up you give SMiSA permission to start collecting the chosen amount from the 1st of each month. Payments continue indefinitely — you can cancel at any time by cancelling the Direct Debit.
