Membership Fees for 2023

As the new year approaches it is the time our thoughts turn to renewals.

Swim England have issued their fee table for next year as below

(Fees for every swimmer due to Swim England always consist of the sum of National, Regional and County fees)

Club Fees will slightly increase to £23 for the year. £23 for 2023 - see what we did there! Non-swimming Club Officials etc. remains at £5

So the fees due in January for the various categories and payable to the Club will be...

Club Compete: £62 - Members who compete for CHESC at any point during the year, including relays

Club Train:        £41.50 - those members who only train and have no intention of competing in the year (Why Not?)

Club Support:   £14 - Non-swimming members who represent the club on committee etc.

Club Membership Only:  £23 - those swimmers who register and pay fees to Swim England through another Swimming Club

Friends of the Club: £5 - Non-swimming members with no Swim England association who just "support" the Club

Training Fees will remain static at £4 per session (payable by Bank Transfer of £40 for 10 sessions) despite a major hike in pool rental charges being imposed by the school - the club will absorb these for the time being.

A new/renewal membership form has been released which all members must complete for the 2023 year - 2023 Membership Form

 

Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and we'll see you all back in January raring to go...!
