Your 2026-27 SAC Membership Status and Category Changes

Dear Member

The Club has a small team of almost only volunteers who manage sending out and processing subscriptions over the Summer. Last year we received over 200 emails requesting changes to Category, Membership status, lockers and licences.
Please let us know before the 5th of July of any changes you would like to make for you or any member of your family, and we can then issue you with the correct devis/quote and speed up the process.
Please email your changes to .
Please note that category changes that are simply due to age are handled directly by the system and no request needs to be made in this case.
Many thanks in advance for your help with this

Richard Parkin
President

Little Musicians and Brunch - Sunday 28 June

image

The next Little Musicians/Petits Musiciens session will be on Sunday, 28 June, from 11 am to 12:30 pm, with Brunch from 11 am to 2 pm.
Book using this Hello Asso link. Don't forget that if a child is signed up for Breakfast/Brunch together with a parent, they have free access to the 1.5-hour class. If you don’t want to sign up for breakfast/brunch, it is €25 per child for the class. It is easier and cheaper if you reserve your place before Friday evening. Prices are more expensive at the bar on the day, and you risk the class being full.
