The bus cost per family is £5 for one seat, £10 for two to four seats and an extra £5 for each additional seat.

Availability
Club members from U11 (aged 9+) to U20 (under 20 on 31/12/2015) are eligible to compete. The age categories are U11, U13, U15, U17 and U20.
Please use the availability form to let to let the team managers know if you're available or not for this match. For league matches, availability forms should always be submitted, even if you are not available!
The last date to confirm availability is midnight on Sunday 24th January.
Selection
The team managers will finalise the teams after the availability period has closed. The teams will be announced on the Wednesday before the competition.
As this is a half-day team competition with only 2 places per event per club, athletes will usually only be doing 2 events, and may not be doing their favourite event!
At league matches, the emphasis is on participation and competing as a part of a team, with all selected club members expected to take part.
The points scoring system means that it's important that we have competitors in all events at a match. Athletes that do an event for the first time "to get a point" are just as important a part of the team as the athletes that win events.
Also, there are one or two age groups where we have a large number of athletes which means, because this is a league match with a limited number of places per team, we may not be able to accommodate absolutely everyone who wants to compete or some athletes may only be doing 1 event.
