**Outstanding Club Memberships and England Athletics Affiliations**

23/05/2018 20:26:26

Thank you to all club members who have paid club membership and England Athletics affiliation so far! But there's still a few active members who are outstanding. I'd be very grateful if memberships could be completed by the end of May latest. After this date any unpaid EA affiliations will lapse, and importantly, if you are a coach your licence will not be valid. If any one has issues renewing their membership, please message me via the Contacts page.
