A new member can come and try out a club session ONCE. Thereafter they MUST join the club & pay their registration fees, for insurance purposes, etc. We ALWAYS need new coaches or parents who are willing to help out at sessions. Please contact the club or just come down to a session. We will fund you to do a coaching course and to get registered as an AAI accredited coach. Please note new members MUST be aged 8 yrs. or older at time of joining.
