Race/ training insurance reminder


Urgent:

Any club members participating in the forthcoming Duathlon league/ Club Time Trials/Swim Series/ Training Sessions must have a valid up to date Triathlon Ireland membership.

Anyone who intends taking out a Full License will you please renew membership or join Triathlon Ireland over the next 2-3 weeks or at the minimum a week before the first Duathlon. This will assist the club so that people don’t take out both associate and full membership. Once you take out full membership will you forward your TI number to Wayne (sligocitytriathlon@gmail.com) for our records.

Any club members who intends only using one day license fees will you please contact Wayne immediately so he can arrange the associate memberships. The Sligo city Tri membership subscription includes associate membership of Triathlon Ireland.

Any club members who turn up on the day without a valid TI number will not be allowed participate as it puts the club at risk of not having the necessary insurance.

Only non club members who turn up on the day can participate by signing the disclaimer.

DON’T FORGET TO REGISTER AS SLIGO CITY TRI MEMBERS
