Hi,
I’m a “second claim” member, and I’ve just renewed my membership online… From Chris’s post of 31st March I was wondering whether this means that I’ve effectively paid the English Athletics affiliation fee twice? By all means keep the extra money for BvH. I’d rather it went to the club than EA.
Best wishes,
Allan Green
I’ve re-opened the link now so current members can renew or new members can join.
Hi Minnie,
Dave took the link down temporarily, as members present at the AGM voted to increase fees for 2013. (UK Athletics have increased affiliation by £5 per member, and it was agreed at the AGM that we should take that increase into account with the 2013 membership fees). It’ll be back up shortly.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi, does anyone happen to know when we`ll be able to renew our online memberships please as the link is still down?
PS Happy Easter to one and all!
Have fixed this now. Apologies.
Hi, I’m still having problems renewing. I am trying to renew, but it keeps wanting to charge me the new members rate. I have enough vests! Is it me?

Hi Jules,
There is no per session fee, we encourage potential new members to come along for a few sessions before joining up for the year. Athletic year starts in April & we will keep the website updated as to when renewals/New membership is ready to go. Included in the membership fee is a rather fetching teal vest
High visibility gear is advisable for the evening runs, also be aware that Saturday morning is all on the grass, most of us wear spikes or trail shoes for the session, but if you have neither I would recommend bringing dry clothes & shoes to change into.
