Competing is a key part of belonging to our club. Training is hugely important, but it is only part of the experience. When athletes join, they sign up to a commitment to compete and become part of a team, with a shared responsibility to represent the club in league matches and team events whenever possible. From now on, athletes who show a consistent commitment to competing for the club in league matches and team events will be given priority for places in training groups.

The club is run entirely by a fantastic group of volunteers, but we do urgently need more people to help if we are to continue to offer all of our current activities and continue to thrive. We are particularly looking for people with finance experience who could take on some or parts of the Treasurer role.
There is a list of roles we are looking to fill on the website, but if you just have a small amount of time we do have other ad-hoc roles to fill. Use this form to express your interest: Fill in the Volunteer sign-up form
