How are ya boycie. Far as I know 16 unless accompanied by a senior member or relative. Found this on the SAC link:


"For the moment we are insisting that junior members are accompanied by a relative or legal guardian i.e. senior member. Ideally we want to get a senior member club up to speed quickly so that if there is a demand for junior memberships, this facet of the club can be managed properly."

Generally its up to the club concerned. i think with most clubs its 11 or twelve and you become a senior when you are 16, but that can also be up to the club concerned.

SAISAC are not accepting more members for 2007.
However, if we accept junior members, they would have to be accompanied by a parent/legal guardian/sibling of 18+ to any event.
