Notice: Function _load_textdomain_just_in_time was called incorrectly. Translation loading for the atahualpa domain was triggered too early. This is usually an indicator for some code in the plugin or theme running too early. Translations should be loaded at the init action or later. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information.

As in 2024-25 I am content with members being registered with me through regional zones and I will be emailing zonal officers regarding this.  I am also happy for clubs to register their players directly with me as some North Wales and Gwent clubs did in 2024-25 and individuals can also become registered by completing the attached direct membership applications form.  

If anyone has any questions on anything re registrations please do not hesitate to get in touch with me.
