I wonder if my membership fees simply subsidise those who compete and do all sorts of things that I never do. I don't mind when I am coaching because I know I get coach insurance, but when I am only going along to my local recreational club once a week and doing a few handstands I wonder what all the money is for?
And can't they change the membership year if they insist on having coaching courses at the back end of the year? When you take out a membership in Oct/Nov just because you have to for your course and then it runs out on 31st December that is ridiculous, especially in areas where we have to buy 2 memberships for each course. My school won't pay for memberships that don't last all year which means I can never get on courses (except one I just paid for myself).
