JT! Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 A trick that's used on the comp here is to piggy back on another competition. Maybe if there's a local moto trials comp, have a comp at the same time, same area, and organize it so that people sign up and pay an entry free to them. Here we piggyback off MTB /XC comps.Insurance covered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 What do you mean by trials club? Competitions? Indoor/Outdoor? Practice club in a warehouse with a load of stuff to ride on? If it's the comp side, either try and piggyback onto another genre as mentioned or go the whole hog and seek ACU affiliation to make everything legit and cover insurance etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaRtZ Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 Don't the FreerideTrials club is going strongly todaynot. Yes insurance is the bitch, and it costs alot for your first time running it! You may have to charge around £20 for your first comp just to cover insurance and land which is insane! Then you need the actual permission of the land owner, which can be free, or costly. Once thats sorted your laughing We got a council grant to do our events insurance. And indeed they did the paperwork too which was handy considering the majority of us were under 17. I suggest get that south walian government to do either a demo or a competition at your next big event, get the to pay for insurance and land and then when they're impressed, they'll probs help out more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
