MEMBERSHIP & INFORMATION

Club membership:

We are an England Athletics affiliated club. Membership fees are listed below and there are downloadable forms. Formal information about the club is here including our constitution

As a full club member, you will be registered with England Athletics and receive all the benefits and support that brings, including eligibility to enter UKA events, discounts on race entry and partner offers. See the EA website for more information about their benefits. You can also represent the club at races and enjoy benefits such as discounted membership of Craven Leisure, discount and free delivery with SportsShoes.com, discount at Yorkshire Runner and at Cotswold Outdoors.

We also have a membership category without England Athletics affiliation. This entitles you to join in Club training sessions and social events but not take part in races as a Skipton AC athlete.

If you are already registered with an EA registered club you are welcome to join Skipton AC as a second claim athlete.

Membership for Juniors does not include EA registration.

If you are interested in joining Skipton AC, you are welcome to come and meet some of us during evening training sessions or Wednesday social runs before you decide to join. If you like us, please download and complete a membership application form (below) and email to:
