Arrangements for the 2025/26 season

Membership for the current 2024/25 season is now closed apart from the River Only membership.

Membership for the new 2025/26 season will open at 8am on the 10th February 2025 for new, existing and past members, however, new and past members requiring a membership plan that includes a  Night Permit will need to wait until 8am on Sunday 16th March 2025 to join the club. 

Existing members wishing to purchase a night permit for the new season will have to rejoin by Saturday 15th March when the night permits will then become available for new and past members.

New and past members requiring a Night Permit will need to wait to join the club from 8am on Sunday 16th March when any remaining membership plans with a Night Permit will become available for purchasing until the limit set by the Committee is met.  If any applicant is unsuccessful then they will be offered an appropriate ‘day’ membership plan and a refund of the Night Permit fee.   As an ‘existing member’ they will then be able to apply for a membership plan plus Night Permit if they rejoin in February 2026.  ‘Day fishing’ is from 5 am until 10 pm.  To save time it is recommended that applicants register with Clubmate, complete and save their ID Profile in advance of the 16th March.

New members are able to start fishing from the date of joining.

A new Non-fishing Guest subscription free membership plan has been introduced.  No membership card will be issued.

Guest Tickets will continue to be issued via the club’s website.

Clubmate

The Association will  continue to use Clubmate to manage our membership applications this year.  Please see the News page article.

Scroll down to view subscriptions and the Globe icon to access the Clubmate website.

Members will purchase their membership on that website and Clubmate will send out our membership cards and our handbooks within 14 days.  The online admin fee will remain at £5 as a contribution towards Clubmate’s processing fees.

New members will need to upload a portrait passport style head and shoulders photo of yourself, showing only your face, which will be used on your new membership card. If you do not do so, the issue of your membership card will be suspended until a photo that meets those requirements is uploaded. (Do not submit a photo of your old membership card, holding a fish, a dog or with another person.)

• If you are intending to join as a new member to purchase a membership plan with a night permit it is recommended that you register with Clubmate and complete your ID profile before the 16th March.

If you have any queries or require help with Clubmate please contact the Membership Secretary, Fred Merrin, by emailing or phoning 07952058389. Please do not contact Clubmate direct, any other club Official, send Facebook Messages or Comments, use Clubmate emails or send texts about Clubmate issues. Keeping track of all these different methods of contacting the club is too time consuming.

• If you are an existing member, when rejoining, please ensure you use the email address you used to register with Clubmate last year otherwise a duplicate account will be created and the system will view you as a new member.  If you wish to use a new email address, please email the Membership Secretary, at kelvedon.daa@gmail.com, with your new email address before logging into Clubmate.

If anyone is unable to join online or find someone to do so for them, please email kelvedon.daa@gmail.com  or telephone the Membership Secretary on 07952 058389

Guest tickets can still be purchased via this website.
