England Athletics Registration

You also have the option to register as a competitive athlete with England Athletics (EA). EA registration costs an additional £23 per year (rate applicable for 2026/27). We encourage club members to join EA – although this is entirely optional. EA provides members with support, advice, access to training and development, and, of course, running opportunities! If you intend to enter races that operate under England Athletics (EA) or UK Athletics (UKA) rules, you are likely to benefit from the reduced race fees available to EA/UKA members. In addition, there are some running races which Lymm Runners participate in that are only open to EA/UKA members.

Please note that you cannot hold an EA/UKA licence with more than one club at a time, although we can transfer your existing licence to Lymm Runners if you so wish. Please contact membership@lymmrunners.org.uk for the necessary details for this.
