----------------------------------------

Specific matters relating to 1st Claim IEK

*   You may enter our annual club championships *   Your performances are listed in our ranking lists *   You may vote on club affairs at AGM meetings

2nd Claim membership

This applies only if you belong to two clubs - you have to declare one of the two as the main club

  

You join us in this category as a convenience because your main club is either far away or doesn't do events you're interested in and we're your secondary club

  

You can't compete for us in championships, so we're not responsible for your England Athletics Competitor Licence.

  

In ALL championships you wear the colours of your main (1st Claim) club

  

You may compete in our League Teams, but only if your main club doesn't also compete there

----------------------------------------

Specific matters relating to 2nd Claim IEK
You may compete as a guest   in our internal club championships but note, our internal ranking lists are restricted to our 1st claim members.
