Alnwick Tri Club Fees in 2025

Costs have risen sharply over the last few years, as we all know, and the Tri club have not raised membership or swim session fees during this time. As we head into 2025, however, we need to make some modest increases to the fees that our members pay. Rather than raise our basic charges your committee have instead decided to pass on the card handling fees when our members are making a payment; previously these fees have reduced the amount the club received for each payment.

These card fees are 35p + 1% of the transaction cost on each payment. Which means that the renewal of a standard adult membership will now cost £20.55 (with the club receiving £20) and booking in to a coached swim session will be £5.40 (£5 goes to the club). Other fee amounts will likewise be increased by similar card charges. We hope you will agree that club membership is still great value in relation to the excellent range of coaching on offer, as is getting a coached swim session for less than the price of walk up pool entry (currently £5.50 at Willowburn).

As communicated in emails related to our new membership system we are moving to a fixed date renewal for memberships in 2025. The due date for those is 1st February and payment requests will go out about 2 weeks before that, so please keep your eye out for the relevant email. If you do not renew then you will lose access to book into any club sessions after the due date. For those members whose current membership would have expired after February your payment request will be for a reduced amount to account for this. If for any reason you disagree with the amount being requested then please do contact me to discuss before making a payment. Likewise, if you do not intend to renew your membership and want it to run until the original expiry date then please contact me and I can make a manual exception.

Regards,

Tony
