In previous Championships, non-payment and subsequent non-attendance has resulted in us not having space to accept entries, with consequent loss of revenue. Therefore, we have been obliged to introduce a policy whereby once your squadding-notice is sent your payment must be made within seven days, otherwise your entry will be withdrawn. Your squadding notice will include either a receipt for fees paid or a notice of the fees payable.

Squadding notices will be sent by e-mail. Please PRINT your e-mail address clearly. If you have no e-mail address, enclose a s.a.e. with your entry-form for the return of your squadding-notice.
