The Club retained existing membership throughout the year. We did experience a small dip from last year, however we have increased our numbers, through Social Memberships and regional riders. Karratha experienced a contraction in population in the past number of years, conversely The Club has been either growing or maintaining numbers, due to our interactions with new members and our support. Increase growth of club was not targeted this year, however the club would like to take advantage and develop of social memberships provided by MTBA. Dirtmasters membership continues to be strong. The club held 10 sessions this year with an average of 15 Dirtmasters per a session. Thank you for the support from the Parents, Level 1 Coaches and Trainees to make these events happen. In addition to the Dirtmasters, International Mountain Bike Association (IMBA) held Take A Kid Mountain Biking (TAKMTB) which had 15 riders attend despite the hot conditions. WA reputation is increasing with our Club s participation with regional events. Notable events were Club was represented were Western Australian Gravity Enduro (WAGE) events, Cape To Cape and Dwellingup 100. Skills Clinics are continuing. We had low uptake, so club made it free to club which increased the participation. Travel sponsorship. Amanda Ewin and Cameron Crane took advantage, members participated in State Race Rounds and Skill Developments Camps. Travel Sponsorship can be used for any UCI and IMBA sanctioned events. Club looks to continue the endorsement of the Travel Sponsorship for next year, Resolution to be placed to vote. Developed coaches to Level One. Alex Wright and Erin Shaylor, now completed their training. Increased support for Dirtmasters events. Caitlin Budd was supported and coached by Erin Shaylor and has progressed from Dirtmasters to racing now. The Club will continue to attract riders outside of Karratha. Club has had participation from riders travelling from Exmouth, Paraburdoo, Perth and Port Hedland for the Dr. Baynton s 6 hours. Club had a rider come from Port Hedland for each of the race rounds. Trails legitimising is still continuing. We are developing a trail subcommittee which will focus on development of new sustainable trails and their maintenance.
