Is there a difference between "registering here" and becoming a member? I can't find a link for a "membership" as noted in the sevens festival email.

Hi, sorry. I have not had a prominent place to post the form.

 

Here it is. http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetForum/upload/20991.USA7sMemberData.pdf

 

Please coordinate with Phil on turning it in.

 

Basically, being a forum member is free. Club membership costs $20 per year. You can pay it and just become a member, or you can just wait and pay it as part of your event fee. Either way, your membership will be active for one year.
