Hardley Runners Subscriptions

Hi All

Our year end is 31 March so if you haven't yet paid for the year to 31 March 2009 please do so now.

UK Athletics have increased theindividual registration fee by £2 to £5 for 2008 for all 'active' members of affiliated running clubs. At our recent AGM we decided that the Club will continue to pay the first £3 but to add the extra £2 to subscriptions. Out of County members must pay the whole £5.

Membership fees are therefore as follows:

Individual £10
Family £15 (including two partners and offspring aged 15 to 21)
Extra £2 for each person registered with UK.
Outside County £4 plus £5 for members registered with UKA

One of our problems has been decyphering some entries on membership forms (particularly email addresses) so this year we have introduced a form you can complete on your computer then print off, sign, date and send to Dave with the cheque. We haven't done this before so we'd welcome suggestions for improving the forms based on your experience of completing them. Please send comments to the webmaster (see Contact Us tab).

There are two versions you can complete on your computer

a Word document which you can save to your computer and fill in at your leisure. Just open the link and go file:save as and save it to the place you keep your running stuff. To fill it up select from the drop down menus in the grey boxes or type in where there's no drop down menu. Click here for Word subscription form

a web form which you complete online then print and send to Dave. Click here for the online subscription form. Please note that the online form automatically generates an email to our webmaster, Jeremy Barber, when you hit OK. You probably won't be aware of this and it is just to enable us to monitor useage. You must print out the form, sign and date it and send it by post. Maybe one day we will get fully electronic so you could pay by Paypal. If you think that is a good idea please say so in your feedback.

If you are not able to use either of these forms or just want a blank form then here's a PDF version which you can print out and fill up in the good old fashioned way by hand. Please take care to make all contact details easily legible. Thanks. Click here for PDF subscription form

If any details change after you have submitted your form please forward changes to residential address, phone numbers and particularly e-mail addresses to David McElhenny (see Contact Us tab) ASAP, preferably by e-mail, to ensure that you receive club communications.

Should you wish to receive individual Membership Cards/s (which are necessary to obtain club discounts at local shops) you must also include a stamped addressed envelope.

We look forward to receiving your membership renewal without which you will not be entitled to any of the benefits of Club membership. Current club members are eligible to participate in 'closed' events such as Cycling Time Trial, CC6 and RR10 races. If you pay the extra for UKA you don't have to pay the extra 'unaffiliated' charge (usually £2 but sometimes more) when you enter other races.

Have a great year of running and cycling in 2008.
