For absolute clarity neither ARC or the SSE Board have made a decision that an artificial or dry slope squad should not exist. It has asked for clarity and planning any proposed squad, team or events it may take part it in and details for the development of its athletes.

Welwyn slope update - ERSA Champs
We have been in regular communication with Gosling centre regarding the re-opening of the slope and the readiness for the ERSA Champs on the 27th September. As of Wednesday evening they have confirmed that they expect to be allowed to re-open by the close of play this Friday.
We will confirm Friday if everything is still on track. If not and there continue to be problems we will move the race. So please be patient with us until the weekend.

Hemel Club update
As you know HEM have had the policy for a number of years that if registered with one of the HNGBs you had to change your fist club to HEM if wishing to join us for training on the snow. HSRC had a bit of a monopoly, apart from the academies, of snow training at Hemel. At a recent committee meeting the request was made that we relax this rule and allow “other” club members to attend if they so wish.
This was duly passed so from the 14th September 2015 HSRC will accept trainees who are registered but do not wish to amend their first club.
2015 Trophy Return
It is that time of year again when we need the trophies returned and engraved. They will be presented at the ERSA Champs at the end of September and we need them back well before then. Please return them directly to Jo Ogden or better your club Race Manager. Full details in the attached file.
If you have any problems please email either Jo Ogden or Bernard Wright.
