2.FEES & SUBSCRIPTIONS

Fees for 2010

Every swimmer must be a member of the club. People who help in any way on the poolside will be given complementary membership, but you MUST fill in a membership form each year.

Those swimmers who belong to more than one club, must decide which club to use for initial registration with the ASA. ASA Category 2 fees will be payable through that club. A dual membership form must be filled in and signed by the relevant official from both clubs.

Affiliated membership is for those sections of the club which are self financing (Water Polo, Synchro, Diving and Masters), but need to compete under the name of Halifax Swimming Club.  ASA registration fees apply.
