OSRA is very proud of the achievements of county players in the ICC and wishes to continue to support our involvement in this tournament. We also have a mandate, however, to manage the association's funds responsibly, supporting players within the county at all levels and age groups and this necessitates control over its limited budgets.
This policy seeks to lay out OSRA's approach to reimbursement of expenses incurred by teams playing in the Senior ICC. Any doubts should be raised with the Treasurer or County Secretary in advance of expenditure.

Travel and accommodation expenses will not be paid for any home matches, or those played in Berkshire or Buckinghamshire.
For intercounty events played at home, eligible players are those selected for the team who travelled to the venue.
• For 5 player teams, a mileage claim may be made for a maximum of two cars.
• For 3 player teams, a mileage claim may be made for a maximum of one car.
In the unlikely event that public transport may be used, the captain should contact the Treasurer in advance for approval.
If travelling on each day of the event is deemed unreasonable by the team captain, an overnight stay (including breakfast) for one night is allowable.
An accommodation contribution of £35 per person or the actual cost of the overnight stay (whichever is lower) may be claimed.
Meal costs, other than breakfast (which may be within any accommodation allowance claimed), will not be reimbursed. The host county will provide one meal daily during the course of the weekend.
The court hire and food expenses for Intercounty Finals are paid by England Squash and Racketball. However, the costs for all other matches prior to Finals Weekend (i.e. Stages 1 and 2) are the responsibility of the host counties.
The Treasurer will negotiate court fees and meal costs for all ICC matches with suitable venues at the start of each season. Subsequent invoices should be recharged directly to OSRA by the venues.
OSRA will supply Dunlop match balls to the captain prior to a match.
