New SU Sport membership
Insurance
How do we insure our members if we have centralised membership and ability to turn up to all clubs events?
Some climbing sessions, sunday walks and some orienteering events already open to public and not covered by BMC insurance as low enough risk.
Grace period of 3 months covers 1st semester, then if they want to join in 2nd semester then we may need to charge for people to add them to insurance, or we will be back to normal and we can charge as usual. Contact details needed for this 3 month period.
Separate insurance through British orienteering which is £20 as one off payment. Individuals need to pay additional amount (£5 under 20 and £10 over 20) to be personally insured but club is insured if we affiliate the club.
BUMC/SU Sport members
Currently we have 2 membership options, a prospective and a paid membership option.
Paid membership is £5, however there is no way to upgrade at the minute from prospective to paid. At the minute have to wait until 3 month period is over and it has expired, or contact SU and get them removed as prospective members then ask them to rejoin.
Prospective membership is covered under the SU general
sport membership and is just a case of filling out a form.
20 members on the prospective member list so need to contact them.
At the end of the 3 months, they are removed as a member of BUMC on the SU page, so will need to be removed from the teams page, probably managed by us.
Also they will be able to rejoin as prospective member but wont be covered by grace period of insurance so will need to look into this.
How are we convincing people to be a BUMC specific member
Prospective member covered for 3 months under trial event so can offer free events to them under general SU membership. Currently have access to Sunday walks, weekly indoor climbing, virtual sessions, orienteering and running sessions.
Paid members get BMC insurance for the whole year, including outside club events, access to learn to belay and learn to lead, any day trips (sally in the woods, cheddar etc.) (wild camps with small capacity if possible) and access to gear and Facebook group.
