Gift Aid on Matchday payments

Many clubs that are CASC's or Charities can claim 25% Gift Aid from HMRC on certain subscriptions, mainly youth subscriptions paid for by a tax-paying adult, typically their parents. 

To claim Gift Aid we need to collect a declaration from the person paying the subscription that they are happy for it to be eligible for Gift Aid and personal details to link it back.
This one feature would be worth about £24,000 of additional income to our club and would massively increase the footballing opportunities we could offer our local community. 

I'd be happy to explain how I think this could work to the relevant dev team to allow for easy HMRC reporting and massively increase funding to local football at no cost to the FA, clubs or players/parents.
