AAI membership

EMPM

Hi, is it possible to get AAI memebrship without joining a club. I cant seem to find any info on their web site.

Thanks

Don't think so. You should be able to get associate membership with a club?

No, nearly 100% sure not. Is there no club near you?

Thanks for the replys.

There is a club just a few mins away from me, some training times dont suit me, so i wondering if i could get AAI membership to take part in AAI competitions

i thought there was independent membership since i have seen people run in white unattached singlets at the national cross country.

see section 1.10 of below which outlines unattached membership

That's generally for people moving between clubs. Only valid for 6 months anyway. Oh if only boards ac was still in existence. Would have been perfect for the OP.

I guess marathon club Ireland would be similar in set up 25 yoyos to join I think and with AAI membership. They might stipulate you have to run marathons though...

You may well find that officially posted training times are complemented with groups of members training themselves at times that suit them - at least thats how it works in my club, always ad-hoc or informal groups meeting up for a run.
