Our AGM took place on November 29th at the Fisherman's Retreat, Ramsbottom.
A copy of the minutes of the meeting are below but, in brief, the following:
- There is still a vacancy for a Chairman and a Vice-Chairman following Steve Collinson and Barry Sanderson stepping down after many years of service to the club.
- The club was financially healthy with a stable level of funds in the bank.
- Membership Fees for 2020 will remain at their current level.
- Entry fees will be held at current levels however these may need to be reviewed as and when necessary in the light of insurance and other fees etc.
Full minutes are available here -

ACU Licences
Just a reminder that all riders in Darwen Trials Club events are required to have a current ACU licence - officially an ACU Registration. These can be obtained either through the club's Membership Secretary, Ian Capper, or directly from the ACU. If you are registering for the first time through the ACU, you will need to obtain a club code from Ian and also submit a recent passport-style photo.
ACU registration costs £10 a year for both adult and youth members and provides insurance coverage during competitions. An application form can be downloaded below. It is club policy to check licences at signing-on for all events.
