North Avon Christchurch BMX Club (NAC)

Membership is $40 per year for the first family member and other members from the same family are $10 each.

This money goes towards our BMX NZ affiliation fee, track repair and maintenance and running of club days.

NAC Number Plates - all NAC members are allocated a NAC number to ride on for as long as they are club members. NAC sells number plates that comply with the BMXNZ Rules for $15.
Note: this excludes Sprocket riders as they receive Sprocket Rocket Plates from BMXNZ.

It is the policy of NAC to ensure that all participants, volunteers, coaches and parents promote fair play at all times. Riders are encouraged to be "good sports" and to co-operate with and respect other riders, coaches and officials at all times. The aim is for all riders to enjoy training & racing, improve their skills and have fun.

NAC BMX Club also promotes safety and management of risks during training sessions as much as is practicable within our sport. Our coaches and track side assistants are volunteers who will take all care but accept no responsibility for damage or injury to property or person whilst participating in any activity within the confines of the BMX track. All riders and parents have the responsibility to take all practicable steps to manage their own safety while participating in the sport, either as a rider or a spectator. Please read the NAC Risk Assessment Management Plan document below to familiarise yourself with likely hazards and your responsibilities as a parent and/or rider.
