AMCA Affiliation

Holbrook Motorcycle Sports Club has affiliated with the Australian Motorcycling Competition Association (AMCA).

AMCA provides national competition sanctioning, insurance cover, and safety frameworks that allow clubs to run properly organised and insured events.

This page explains what AMCA is, why our club has affiliated, and what members and participants need to do when attending AMCA-sanctioned events.

What is AMCA?

The Australian Motorcycling Competition Association (AMCA) provides:

• National competition sanctioning
  
  

• Event insurance cover
  
  

• Standardised safety and participation requirements
  
  

• Support for clubs running motorcycle events
  
  

AMCA affiliation helps ensure our events are properly insured and run to recognised safety standards, protecting riders, volunteers, officials, landowners, and the club.

Why our club has affiliated with AMCA

Holbrook Motorcycle Sports Club has affiliated with AMCA to:

• Continue running insured and sanctioned events
  
  

• Meet recognised competition and safety standards
  
  

• Protect riders, volunteers, and officials
  
  

• Support the long-term sustainability of club events
  
  

This change allows the club to continue operating responsibly while maintaining the welcoming, community-focused culture we value.

What this means for members and participants

For AMCA-sanctioned events, all participants must hold a valid AMCA membership, including:

• riders
  
  

• officials
  
  

• volunteers
  
  

• marshals
  
  

• pit crew (where applicable)
  
  

AMCA membership is free and must be completed before attending the event.

Juniors and parents

Junior riders are welcome at many Holbrook Motorcycle Sports Club events.

For AMCA-sanctioned events:

• Juniors must meet the event’s age and eligibility requirements
  
  

• A parent or guardian must be present at sign-on and during the event
  
  

• Juniors must ride in the appropriate class for their age and experience
  
  

Junior eligibility and requirements will always be clearly listed on the event page.

✔ Club membership still applies

AMCA membership does not replace Holbrook Motorcycle Sports Club membership.

• You must still be a current HMSCC member to participate in club events
  
  

• AMCA membership is an additional requirement for sanctioned events only
  
  

Competition licences (where required)

Some events may require an AMCA competition licence depending on the event format.

Licence requirements will always be clearly listed on the relevant event page.
