NEW MEMBERS
To join our club, CRFC, and enjoy playing you will need a GMS account. You cannot be a member unless you have one. All existing / lapsed members will have a GMS account. Both children and parents need a GMS account.
WHAT IS GMS?
Game Management System (GMS) is an IT tool developed by the RFU to assist rugby clubs with their administrative needs, including membership. It is an ever-evolving tool with new functionality being added as per requirements put forward by grass-roots rugby clubs. At CRFC we also take payment through GMS. Registration and active, paid-up membership ensures that players are covered by the RFU’s standard insurance for the season.
