You can join as a “Club-only” member, or become a member of the British Orienteering Federation (BOF) with whom we are affiliated. When you join BOF you can select Wrekin Orienteers (WRE) as your club, which in turn also registers you as a member of our Club and of the West Midlands Orienteering Association, our regional body.
If you’re an existing BOF member moving from another club, you can select Wrekin as your club from your BOF profile page or at renewal (if you renew manually).
The details below shows you what benefits there are of both types of membership. We would be very pleased to welcome you as either Club or BOF member.
The fees shown below are Annual Fees and renewal is due in December each year.
