Club policy for prospective members aged 16 and under is that they must be accompanied by a parent/guardian on their initial visit, to provide contact details and permission for membership. It also gives the parent/guardian a chance to see the club for themselves.

We are a competing club but unfortunately we do not have the resources to take complete beginners for middle and long distance training groups. For these disciplines we would expect prospective junior members to be able to run/jog 1 mile without stopping and seniors run 10km non stop.
