Membership Details
As of 1st January 2007, a new membership structure was implemented. There are two categories of British Orienteering Membership: Local Membership of British Orienteering (LBM) and National Membership of British Orienteering (NBM).
The change was introduced to encourage all regular orienteers to become British Orienteering members and give them a say in the governance and development of UK orienteering.
If you want to compete in the South West region (which extends to Bournemouth in the East and Gloucester in the North) then local membership is for you. If, later on, when you have been bitten by the 'bug' and you want to travel more widely and join with club members in relay teams out of the region or National competitions outside the SW then you will need need National membership.
As well as any British Orienteering mailing, all KERNO members will receive the Club newsletter "Punch" every 2 months which includes news, views, gossip and a comprehensive fixture list; results of KERNO events and will be eligible to join its Forest League Competition.
Cost of membership for 2012 is:
| Type | Junior | Senior | Family |
|---|---|---|---|
| Local (LBM) | £5.60 | £29.85 | £45.20 |
| National (NBM) | £10.35 | £43.60 | £61.70 |
Senior membership applies to all those over the age of 21 whereas family membership includes a maximum of two adults with any numbers of juniors.
