Yes, but you do know that it's actually closer to 43% . That's more than a groat difference.

Yup, when a weekend away could cost you £100+ (entry fees, petrol, accommodation)

and the problem is £3 extra to join the SOA...
SOA wrote:British Orienteering itself acknowledges that the increase in fees might discourage potential members from joining or renewing, and this would have the knock-on effect of member loss to clubs and, here in Scotland, to the Scottish Orienteering Association (SOA). Such a knock-on effect would be detrimental to the health of orienteering in Scotland in particular, because sportscotland’s investment in our sport depends on us demonstrating membership growth year-on-year. Through sportscotland’s investment we are able to support Scottish clubs in a range of ways, from development project funding to the training of volunteers who organise events and the provision of coach education.
I am writing to say that the SOA Board has considered the BOF proposal and would encourage you to vote “Against” the increase in membership fees. If you are not attending the British Orienteering AGM, ways to vote are given here on pages 5 & 6.
