Members' Handbook

The Members' Handbook for 2024 is now online! Access your copy here.

 

This year we have produced the Members' Handbook digitally for our members to support our commitment to cut down on paper use, transport miles, and to help with our green credentials.

All of our judges, stewards and officials will receive a printed copy automatically.
