andy watson Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 If you are already a member of a club, then I presume there are a few of you that would be interested?It might be worth contacting local schools to see if you could have access to their sports hall at certain times and start your own club.To be honest your chances might be slim, but there are a couple of ways to try swing things in your favour.1) Try schools where someone is a parent of a child at that school. Parental pressure/involvement can be very influential.2) Pick schools with specialist status. These are normally described as something like "Scumbag high technology college". As part of the remit of these specialist schools (and a criteria for getting the extra funding) they need to work within the local community. Technology (common); science (rarer) or engineering (very rare) would fit best with the nature of the RC flying and their specialism- but I would try them all.3) Offer to run sessions for the pupils at certain points, whether on a regular basis, or during open days etc.Hope this helps, and if there is any advice I can give then just ask.
