Changes 2021
We are very pleased to report to you changes we have been working on over the past few months.
The observant amongst you would notice that we changed our domain name!
Look at the top bar and you will see that our website became ilca.uk - this is following our re-banding efforts. All UKLA emails have also changed to @ilca.uk but as we transition, you should be able to reach us on old emails as well until we phase them out.

The most exciting news to report is the introduction of a new MEMBER PORTAL
From Wednesday on (31st March 2021) you will be able to log in to the portal and manage your membership and events. Those who renewed your membership already will be shown as ACTIVE. If you have not renewed yet, you will be shown as LAPSED and can renew directly through the portal.
We chose a system that you may already be familiar with through your own sailing club. It’s called the Sailing Club Manager and we are excited to be working with them to keep all membership and events matters in one place for you.
As mentioned in a newsletter earlier this year, membership cards will arrive via email. This is a massive saving to the class and you should not expect to see any snail mail from us apart from the Yearbook - which I hope you enjoyed! If you have not received it, the digital version can be found here
Please amend any personal details that may be incorrect. You can add and amend your boats as well, and when we open entries to events, you will be able to book yourself or members of your household to attend. Parents who are not active members can also book events on behalf of their children but will require their own profile. Depending on which email address you provided at sign up/renew, child’s profile may be linked to parent’s or child’s email address. If you do not receive an email on Wednesday, it means you are not currently in the system and should create a new profile.
We are the first class association to jump on board to utilise many functions the system offers and are looking forward to opening event entries soon.
