WELCOME TO THE

NATIONAL LURCHER & RACING CLUB

             JUNIOR PAGE!    

Junior members have great fun at our shows, we have two show classes in which they can enter their Lurchers, one for under 10 years and the other for 10 - 15 year olds.

If you want to know more about any of these events simply bring your Lurcher to one of our shows advertised in the 'Countryman's Weekly'. This newspaper may not be sold in your local paper shop, so you may have to order a copy from your paper shop. 

Another great way of finding out about us and what shows we will be running, is to join the junior members club. When you join you'll receive a members card, a magazine and newsletters throughout the year. You'll also be able to say that you are a member of one of the biggest Lurcher clubs in the world! If you don't live in the UK then you can still be a member, receiving great stuff through the post!

We are always glad of news from young people around the world with lurchers for example - stories, photos, ideas, recipes, crosswords or pictures etc. Any bits you would like to share with other young Lurcher people would be gratefully received. Who knows? if we like it you may get it published or win a prize! To send us your great stuff or join the club simply download the application form today, fill it in and post it back to us.
