2022/2023 MEMBERSHIP

Membership for the year through to the 30th April 2023 is now available

ONLINE MEMBERSHIP

Via our membership of the Angling Trust we have moved to the "Clubmate" platform to manage membership details, communications and renewals.

This is an off-the-shelf management system designed for fishing clubs which

reduces our administration time and facilitates direct membership payments.

Unless absolutely necessary, we will no longer send information out to members

by post, so, if you are, or wish to be, a member of the Southdown A A, we need    to be able to contact you via email and to do this, your email address and other contact details need to be included in our secure membership database.
