Why Join Carryduff Running Club?
Carryduff Running Club now offers two main membership pathways—First Club and Second Club—to ensure flexibility for every runner who wants to be part of our supportive and inclusive community. We’re proud to have members from a variety of clubs and locations, reflecting our club’s welcoming spirit and collaborative ethos.
Thanks to additional sponsorship this year, we’ve been able to discount our membership fees for the upcoming 2024/25 season. Effective 1st April, these fees will revert to last year’s rates . If you’re ready to join or renew, we recommend doing so before 31 March to take advantage of the reduced pricing.
From 1st March for new or renewed members, we will be setting up a new WhatsApp community to replace our current WhatsApp communication group which will ensure a more streamlined way of organising non-club runs and activities with fellow members.
New – Enhanced Membership
Our Enhanced Membership is ideal for those who want the added benefits of Individual Athlete Athletics NI affiliation where we register you directly with Athletics NI. These benefits include a lifetime Athletics NI Registration Number, discounts on race entries, added insurance coverage, and the chance for a second-chance draw for any London Marathon places allocated to Carryduff Running Club. It’s a fantastic option for anyone eager to compete in official events and make the most of what Athletics NI has to offer.
Whether you’re a brand-new runner or an experienced athlete, we have a membership tier that meets your needs—and we’d love to welcome you into our ever-growing club family.
