Next race in 2 weeks, October 18, and every 2 weeks after that. Note we are racing Nov 1, which is a date we added.

Racing Resumes Sept 6th

We will resume club racing on Sunday September 6th by adhering to the BRCA rules for Covid-19 safety.

The number or racers will be limited and preference will be given to regulars of the club.

You must not attend if you or anyone in your household has had COVID-19 symptoms in the last 7 days, and that if you develop symptoms within 7 days of attending a race meeting you must contact the event organizer.

Attendees will be asked to write down a contact phone number for track and trace purposes only.

All competitors will need a mask, industrial-type gloves, a hi-viz jacket and hand sanitizer. Please note that these are rules, not guidance. Anyone not following the rules will not be racing.

Tables will be spaced at 2 metres and only one racer or household per table. We can fit 5 people in the Hall and 10 people in the adjacent Lounge.

Masks must be worn at all times; when moving around the hall, when at your pit table and when on the rostrum.

Masks and gloves must be worn when setting up and putting away the track and equipment.

Masks must be worn when leaving your pit table to race and while on the rostrum. We will set up a flow system for entering and leaving the rostrum to minimize distance between racers.

Hi-viz jackets and gloves must be worn while marshalling.

Payment £7 on the day by bank transfer, PayPal or in cash exact change – no change will be given.

Race Control is a secure location. Only Race Director to use the computer and printer – do not touch the printouts.

There will be rules in place from the Community Centre, for example, use of toilets.
