  • Reserved license numbers will only be kept until mid February, after which they will be sold on a first come, first served basis.
  • No registration will be accepted without payment at the club or at the shop.  Should you prefer to pay via EFT (this is also our preferred method of receiving your payment), you have to provide a hard copy of proof of payment – no cell phone notifications on the day will be accepted.

  • 2015 License numbers are valid until 31 January 2016.
