Renewals are sent out six weeks in advance of the expiry date of your membership. You can renew in this time without loss of months.
Please contact British Rowing first by email or phone. We will check our records to track your previous membership so that we can allocate the correct number of points to your Licence.
This is because of your date of birth and renewal date. It is OK to take this type of membership and you will still have the correct licence for competing.
Although the Head racing season does not attract points Regression only takes place on full calendar years (January to December). You can regress from 1st January onwards for a previous full year without a qualifying win.

We send out renewal notices to our members, but you can also check by looking at the membership number on your Racing Licence. The first four digits indicate the year (yyyy) followed by the month (mm). Your membership is valid until the end of the month. Remember that if you are being entered for an event through the online entry system your membership has to be valid at the time of the event and not at the time of making the entry.

You will receive an email giving you details of how to access your existing account details so that you can update, renew, etc.
