Dear Member/Competitor
A very happy new year to you all, may I take this opportunity to wish you every success for the coming season I am sure preparations are well on their way.
Some of you may already received your licences for this new year I would like to point out two changes in the MSA Year Book (Blue Book as it is more commonly known) that may affect some of you with regard to licencing and all of you with regard to entry declarations.
I have copied them below to save you digging out the book, should you have any questions please speak to your club representatives.
I look forward to seeing you at an event this season, all the very best
