The introduction of online membership (OMS) in 2012 streamlined the administration of renewals data. This means that the clubs are now submitting their ASA renewals earlier every year. To make sure that clubs and members are properly insured for the activities they are taking part in, we have made the decision to bring the submission of the renewals deadline forward to the 28th February 2018.
It is important that we get returns to SE by their deadline, as failure to do so results in us being heavily fined and suspended from the SE. This means for us, as a club, that we will now have to close books for checking in mid February, a month earlier than previous years, in order to hit their deadline. You will only have six weeks instead of ten to pay your ASA renewal. As before failure to pay by mid February will result in your swimmer being lapsed from the ASA register and therefore unable to compete. To subsequently reinstate will incur a re-registration fee of £25.00 in addition to the normal fees so please be aware of these changes and make sure fees are paid on time.
Details of fees for 2018 will follow in the usual way by means of an attachment to an email which will be distributed mid December.
