COVID19 - UPDATE
The health, safety & well being of all Club members, Event officials & competitors is paramount.
MOTORSPORT
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, all Motorsport UK event permits have been suspended until at least 30th June. But as things are there is a likelihood the suspension could be further extended. Please click the button below for the latest Motorsport UK updates.
It is with regret that the Get it Sideways Stages & Three Shires Stages Rallies have been cancelled. Due to venue restrictions and the possible over supply of events later in the year we feel it is very unlikely that we will be able to reschedule for 2020. Until we have more news we will not be publishing any dates for the Summer Series.
We do have some good news – We are running a series of virtual events & raising money in aid of the NHS Charities COVID-19 appeal, as of early May we have already raised nearly £900. See our Table Top Rally page for details.
SOCIAL & CLUBHOUSE
For the time being the Clubhouse is closed, all meetings have been cancelled or postponed, including the Club AGM. Club members will be notified directly once any decisions are made.
The situation is very fluid, we will continue to monitor developments.

Social
The Clubhouse and Bar is open every evening, and all day Saturday. Plus extended opening for selected F1 Grand Prix and some other international sporting fixtures. The main social nights are Friday & Saturday. Many local people have joined the Club as Associate members, they enjoy the range of Real Ales, the atmosphere and the cheaper prices. (Anyone visiting the Club on more than 3 occasions will be asked to join as an Associate member). A regular annual event is our Wheel Ale Festival
Over the last few years we have gained a good reputation for our Real Ales & Ciders. We have received many CAMRA awards. In 2013, 2017 and 2020 we were awarded the prestigious CAMRA National Club of the Year.
We also stock real cider and a range of wines. CAMRA members welcome, local CAMRA groups sometimes have meetings at the Club.
We have our own Darts and Pool teams in the Cheltenham Leagues, plus have our own cycling and walking groups.
Other local groups meet at the Club, Drag Racers, Motorbike Trials, Scramble and Enduro Clubs, local home brewers, plus a couple of cycling groups and The Hash House Harriers. We have a couple of rooms that we can make available for meetings.
The Magic Bus outings visit local pubs and breweries, usually on a Tuesday evening once a month during the summer months. During the winter months we occasionally have longer trips on a Saturday, for example: beer festivals or Black Country pub tours. The trips are very popular. Book early to avoid disappointment.
