BOF now charges us levy for SOA-only members at their non-member rate, hence why the price is higher in this category. If you intend to compete in more than a few events, it may be worthwhile joining the club, particularly if you're a Junior or full-time student.
3. MAPS
The royalty for use of FVO maps is £2.00 per map
Discounts for youth groups, partial maps & other specials considered on case by case basis.
4. RELAYS
- A discount for those who make prompt payment up front by a date specified by the Club Treasurer.
- Typically 50% for Juniors/Full-time Students
- Typically 20% for Seniors
- Additional support at the discretion of the committee where the Club is running in a wide participation final, and significant distance to travel, or for events like the Jamie Stephenson Trophy for the juniors.
5. OTHER
The Committee at its discretion may make small awards to Juniors to help with expenses where they have been selected for orienteering training or representation at a national level. However, it should be noted that Juniors would be expected to look first outside the club to other sources of funds, including (for example) Sport Council awards. The club would not normally expect to make such awards to seniors. See further guidance and form to complete here
In exceptional cases - sponsorship could be offered via royalty free maps where events are put on which could also be seen to benefit the club. The Committee at its discretion may make small awards to members participating in training courses where the skills gained could reasonably be expected to help the club in its activities.
