Although EA registration is not compulsory it is required for just about all cross country league and cross country champs races the club competes in.

Club claim explained…If you join a running club, and its your only club, then its your first claim club. If you then join another club, that will be your second claim club. You can race as an individual in open races for any club you are a member of. However, for league and champs races and to count as part of a scoring team, you have to compete for your first claim club, unless it is not affiliated to UKA for that discipline, or is not participating in that league.
If you are or have been a first claim member of another club in the past three years and now wish to have Dulwich Runners as your first claim club UKA/EA will require you to “officially resign” and make a change of club claim request for which they make a charge of £10.

Note: A fee of £1 for members and non-members alike is paid every Wednesday that you turn up to run with the club plus any other session fees that may apply.

Our fees are very good value, providing: 
(NOTE: most of these events will require EA registration)
