Renewals (existing members only)
What are the renewal fees?
You can view the fees, and what’s included in each plan, above (https://darlingtonharriers.com/join/)
When can I renew?
Existing members will be sent renewal payment reminders on April 1st or April 2nd 2023. You have until May 1st 2023 to complete the payment. Renewal does not apply to the U11 training groups.
What membership plan will I be renewed on
By default, you’ll be renewed to the membership plan you chose for the previous membership year – if this needs to change, you should contact us before the renewal period in order to advise which plan you want to change to.
Why is track not included?
As you may well be aware, the track is currently being refurbished. Rather than add on a fee for track (which is what has been done in previous years), we’ve taken this opportunity to make this an add-on subscription that any member can purchase at any time. This gives flexibility to our members and makes it easier to manage for the club. When you renew, you’ll renew on the basic fees detailed above, and when track becomes available, we’ll make this available as a separate purchase to all members.
What happens to my membership if I don’t renew?
On the 2nd May 2023, we will resign all non-renewed memberships from both the England Athletics (EA) portal, and the club website. You will then no longer have access to club training sessions. You can choose to reapply for membership by completing the form at https://darlingtonharriers.com/apply/
How do I pay for my renewal?
We will send you a payment request from England Athletics, and this will come from the email address noreply@englandathletics.org – please ensure you have whitelisted this email (or added to safe senders) so that it doesn’t go to junk/spam folders.
Unless you inform us otherwise, additional payment reminders will come out via email throughout April until it has been paid. Failure to pay means your club membership will be resigned on 2nd May 2023.
Are there alternative payment options available?
If you would like to renew, but have concerns about paying as a lump sum, please get in touch with us and we’ll look to see how we can help, and what options are best for you.
