Senior and Student Membership
Code of Conduct and Membership Forms are available from the bottom
of this page.
The Senior Membership (18+) subscription is £20 (or £30 if an England Athletics
competition licence is required via Bude RATs as your 'First Claim' club).
The Student Membership (14-18yrs) subscription is £15 (or £25 if an England Athletics
competition licence is required via Bude RATs as your 'First Claim' club).
Subscriptions are due on 1st April 2013 for the 2013/14 year.
The club is affiliated to England Athletics (EA).
Members can opt (on
payment of the additional £10 fee) to have their personal details registered with
England Athletics by Bude RATs (as their 'First Claim' club).
Such members
will receive an EA competition licence number which entitles them to a
discounted entry fee when entering events organised under a UK Athletics
(UKA) race licence. (Note, this licence also runs from 1
April to 31 March so new applicants will receive their licence number
during April. )
The club is also registered with ARC (Association of Running Clubs)
This
means that any member can claim the race discount when entering races
organised under an ARC permit (such as the Bideford Half Marathon, 10 km &
10 miler events organised by Bideford AAC)
Details of Tuesday and Thursday evening training sessions are on the
TRAINING SESSIONS page.

Splat the Rat
Splat is the club mascot
- veteran of the Club's August '09 'Blood, Sweat & Tears' relay, by run, bike and kayak
around the whole perimeter of Cornwall
- indeed the only club member who completed every leg of that relay
- needs watching, intrepid to a fault; jumped over a cliff and out of a kayak during the relay
- also covered almost 100 miles on the 2010 round-Britain Coastal Challenge
- in early 2011 cycled round New Zealand and ... did what all intrepid back-packers do down under -
bungee jumping! - see pic
- is now looking forward to whatever crazy challenges 2013 holds in store
