How do I apply for membership ?

First obtain a membership form.
The membership form for 2009 (in Microsoft Word format) will be available for download here in February 2009. We cannot finalise next years subscriptions until after our AGM on November the 15th 2008 and the British Water-ski AGM in early January 2009.
If you wish to look at the form for 2008 for reference it is still available for download here.
To discuss 2009 memberships, go to the contacts page and e-mail the membership secretary.

Complete the membership form (not forgetting your Patrol date) and return it with your cheque to the membership secretary.

How do I select my Patrol Date ?

When entering your three preferences for Patrol dates on the membership form refer to the Patrol Rota to check that the dates you want are available. A copy of the Patrol Procedures will be sent to you with your membership cards. You can also find them on the Information page.

I have received my membership cards, what do I do now ?

Take your LHWSA membership card and boat insurance details down to the Langstone Harbour Board Office during working hours to obtain your Ski Licence.
