Parent/Carer General Membership

All Nipper Parents/Carers are strongly encouraged to become General Members of Clovelly SLSC for the following reasons:

• You can’t assist in activities unless you are registered.
• You won’t get as much fun out of Sundays unless you’re helping out.
• If you injure yourself at Nippers, you will be covered by insurance.
• You will be able to enjoy a refreshing drink on Sundays at the upstairs Tom Caddy Bar.

It is compulsory for at least ONE Parent/Carer to register as a General Member and complete the Member Protection Form, but it’s so much more fun and safer if all Parents/Carers register!

• Complete Online Registration and Online Payment.
