25.01.2022 Club Registration Day (Friday 18th September 4-8pm) is fast approaching, existing members can renew their membership online through their Members Portal (don't forget to check and update your details while you're there). New Members, if you cannot attend the Registration Night don't despair, please email us [email protected] and we will send you out all the required info to get you up and running.

25.01.2022 Last season we asked for your feedback about how we operate as a club. You asked us to try to simplify the membership categories and our fees structure. We have done our best to act upon the feedback, and have agreed on the following as the club categories and fees for this season; All junior members - ie under 18yrs - $120... Award/Active members 18yrs + - $120 General member (all ages) - $70 Family membership - parent(s) and all children under 18yrs - $350 These categories are encompassed by those prescribed by SLSA, and we will ensure compliance with their guidelines. Please note there will be NO additional equipment fee charged this season. BSLSC Board
