Individual membership fees for the membership year which runs from 1 September.
New members joining between September and July
Members need to renew every year in August ahead of the new membership year which begins on 1 September. Regardless of when you join between September and July, you need to renew your membership in August. Your membership runs during the Scottish Gymnastics membership year, and not a calendar year.
New bronze members joining in June and July
We reduce the price of bronze membership to £9 for gymnasts between 1 June and 31 July who do not have active membership. This means new members or those whose membership has lapsed.
Please note, they must then buy membership in August of the same year at full price, if they want to remain a member. The discount is applied at the checkout when you join in June and July.
New members joining in August
New or lapsed members buying membership in August do not need to renew their membership until August the following year. They automatically become a member when they pay, until the end of August in the next year.
You can read the full membership rules by clicking the button below. These outline the requirements for each role or level of involvement.
