The Warriors payment structure for membership and coaching fees can be confusing. Hopefully the description below will help.
Warriors and LiveWire are in partnership to develop swimming talent in Warrington. LiveWire run the performance squads and Warriors run the development groups.
All swimmers must be members of Warriors and Swim England in order to compete and have the appropriate insurance cover while training and competing. The Swim England membership fee is a single payment due at the start of each year or whenever a new swimmer is registered. Please note that Swim England membership fees also include Cheshire County and Swim England North West Region fees.
Warriors Groups (Junior 2, Junior 1 and Junior Development)
These groups are run by the Warriors and all fees are paid directly to the Warriors. Depending on the date of registration, there are up to four payment dates per year (1st January, 1st April, 1st July and 1st October) or fees can be paid in full when registering. These payments include Warriors Membership fees and Warriors Coaching fees. The initial payment will include the full Swim England Membership fee.
LiveWire Squads (National Elite, National Development, A, AA, B2, B1, C, Gold, Silver, Masters and Synchro)
These squads are run by LiveWire and monthly coaching fees are paid directly to LiveWire by direct debit. However, Warriors and Swim England membership fees must also be paid and therefore, depending on the date of registration, there are up to four payment dates per year (1st January, 1st April, 1st July and 1st October) or fees can be paid in full when registering. The initial payment will include the full Swim England Membership fee.

When a member registers, a deposit of 25% of the total fee or prorated fee plus full Swim England membership fees are required to be paid. Payment of the remaining fee is divided equally across the remaining payment dates.
If you are registering after 1st October, full payment will be required.
