Change membership should be used if you wish to move onto a new membership offering straight away. This will cancel any current membership you are on and switch straight away onto the new offering.

If you are a staff member looking to upgrade to Staff- Payroll membership, please speak to the Sports Centre team as this cannot be done online.  

Renew  

Renew membership should be used when your current membership is coming to an end. By renewing your membership to a new offering, the new offering will only begin once the current term ends. You will only be able to renew once you have completed 66% of your current membership. If you are on a “pay as you go” membership and wish to change onto a paid membership, please use the “change membership” option instead.
