ABOUT NORTH & MIDLANDS RACING CLUB
The club was originally established in 1980 (then known as North West Racing Club) when there was a boom in regional racing clubs being formed. In those days the flow of information was less available to the public so racing fans were always keen to meet up to discuss racing issues, particularly before big meetings were held such as the Cheltenham Festival.
As time went by the club found it was attracting members from further afield and decided to change its name to Northern Racing Club although today we have many members from Scotland and Wales also as well as the Midlands/Southern England.
As the Midlands Racing Club folded some years ago, and we now get more members living in the Midlands, the club decided to change its name to North & Midlands Racing club with effect from 1st October 2018. The term North & Midlands is meant to reflect the whole of the UK (apart from the South of England) so does include members who live in either Scotland or Wales!
We also hold events with local racecourses as well to expand our activities across a wider area. Also, since the demise of Yorkshire Racing Club in 2019, we are now working with 'Go Racing In Yorkshire' to promote our activities in the 'White Rose' county.
We like to think that all members can enjoy the range of membership benefits on offer such as our bi monthly racing magazine, members-only racing data bases, club competitions, stable visits and racecourse visits. We also now have an informal link with Wales Racing Club and arrange reciprocal stable visits with them in the South West & Midlands.
As from the launch date of the new N&M Racing Club on 1st October 2018, we are offering free online membership for both new and renewal memberships. The free membership will run until further notice so no annual renewals are required. To join all you need to do is complete the subscribe box below. You will then become a registered member and will receive magazine updates as well as being able to join club events and competitions.
The club will also continue to provide a paid membership for those who prefer to receive copies of the club magazine by post. There will now be a simple £12pa fee (per address) to cover the cost of the printed magazine for those living in the UK. For overseas members an extra fee will be required to cover the extra postage costs.
Existing/new members who wish to renew/join and receive paper copies of the magazine can obtain membership form by completing the contact form below - this is the second of the two boxes below (not the subscribe box).
