Rule 9 says Runners may count in competition for their first claim fell-running club only, which may be different from their first claim road, cross-country or track club if that club does not cater for fell-running.

I've tried to get to the bottom of this before and I'm still not sure what cater for means. My first claim club is primarily and traditionally for road runners, so I joined an out-and-out fell club about 6 years ago and consistently ran for that club on the fells. Over the last 18 months however my road club has started its own off-road championship and several of my team mates there have begun running on the fells. Does that mean it now caters for fell-running?
Last time I tried to find out there were some very helpful posts on this forum, and it all seemed to boil down to which boxes my road club secretary had ticked on a form. Unfortunately, I've not been able to locate anyone who knows anything about it, so I've still no idea which I club I should be officially running for. Fortunately, there's no danger of my ever making a prize list, so to some extent it's academic....

TF - you can always call the NoE Office and speak to Judith on 01924 457922.
They should hold your 1st claim clubs affiliation details and advise if they are ticking the fell box.

WP, thanks for that very useful post. I seem to remember that you were most informative last time I tried to sort this out!
