Q. When will the renewal date be?
A. From the 1st of April 2022.
Q. What is the renewal process?
A. England Athletics (EA), not the Ealing Eagles, send payment request emails so keep an eye out for an email from noreply@englandathletics.org - it may well go to your spam folder.
EA will send it to the address in your EA profile - we encourage athletes to log in to the EA website to check that is an email account they still use. If your email address matches, you have checked your junk/spam folder and still can't find the renewal email after 1st April 2022, email membership@ealingeagles.com with your name and Unique Registration Number (URN) so that we can contact EA on your behalf.
Q. When is the deadline for renewal?
A. June the 30th 2022.
If you don't renew by 30th June 2022 you will no longer be affiliated with the club (and EA generally, unless you pay for 1st claim status elsewhere and were 2nd claim with us). Don't worry, we will send regular reminders but we obviously encourage everyone to renew from April onwards.
Q. Is it cheaper if I join later in the year?
A. Neither the club nor EA offer Pro Rata membership, so there is no financial benefit to joining later in the year and indeed after the 30th of June you would no longer be eligible to enter events for EA discount prices in races that follow UKA rules, use of Eagles coach led sessions or access to the club's Facebook account, until such time as you rejoin where you would be asked to pay the full price.
Q. If I want to enter a race taking place soon after the 1st of April, do I need to renew immediately?
A. No - if you are affiliated with the club in the current racing year (April 2021- March 2022) you can sign up for races (that take place before June the 30th 2022) before renewing if you so wish.
Q. Will my Athlete Registration Pack be posted out to me?
A. No - these are now sent digitally. This will include your digital registration card with your personal URN. Your England Athletics digital registration pack/card should be received no later than 48 hours after your registration payment has been received. Your URN will be the same as previous years.
Q. I don't wish to renew - what should I do?
A. If you are sure that you don't want to renew, please send an email to membership@ealingeagles.com to confirm and then depending on whether you are transferring to another club or declining to renew for 2022-23 we can process your request.
