Please be advised that our strong preference is that anyone attending social events at the Clubhouse, or participating in meets, should be fully vaccinated. Individual meet leaders may, at their own discretion, insist that participants are fully vaccinated. We ask you to bear this in mind when submitting an application for membership.

Before proceeding with your application, please read

the useful info page (and note in particular the criteria for obtaining a hut key);
the responsibilities of members; and
the terms and conditions of membership.

Please pay only the once-off joining fee after submitting your application form. The ratification process takes a few weeks; you will be contacted upon election and will be informed of the subscription fees that are due.

Applicants who are applying for Joint Membership with a spouse or cohabiting life partner must each complete an application form and each pay the entrance fee.

Photo Criteria: Applications with photos that do not meet these criteria will not be processed. This photo is used to make your membership card.

Clear visibility of the facial features i.e. applicants must be identifiable.
No sunglasses, hats, or any object that prevents full visibility of the applicant’s face.
The image must contain the applicant’s head and shoulders only, against a blank background.
Original photos only, as jpg attachments (not scanned copies or photos of photos).

(Should you wish to join another geographically-based section of the MCSA, please visit that section’s site for information, by using the menu in the top right-hand corner of this website.)
