The BKSA Membership System

For 2010 we have introduced an all-new online membership system. Members can now log in at any time to see their membership renewal date or to update contact information. A major benefit of the new system is that membership numbers are now persistent, meaning that the number which members are assigned at the time of creating an online account will stay with them for life.

Local Clubs

You can also join a kitesurf club when joining the BKSA from just an additional £5 per annum. We will then give them an additional £5 back on top - spending your money locally on the beach.
For details of all the regional clubs see the clubs page.
The BKSA is actively encouraging and supporting regional clubs to form - we are here to help.
Clubs are the lifeblood of the sport insureing a local point of contact for any issues that may arise locally.
Councils and bodies prefer to talk to clubs as apposed to individuals.
