Start Motocross Racing

The most important thing before you start racing is, have you had any experience on a track, we are a race organisation and riders who join us should have some experience of riding on a track. Practice tracks are a good start for a beginner or a Motocross Experience. We have joined forces with Yamaha to offer Motocross Experiences for people who have never ridden before (15 years and upwards), you can check this out via the following link:- YAMAHA MX EXPERIENCE If you have had experience then you are ready to race, all information on how to get started with the AMCA is below.

Licence and Club

All Motocross Licenced riders need to be with a Motocross Club, we have specific areas across the country with clubs, you need to contact your nearest club and ask them about membership, you can find a club via the following link:- FIND A CLUB. Your licence will not be activated until you have joined your club.

There are 2 different types of membership:- 

1) Working Club Member - you join you club for a small fee and help out at work parties and provide a marshal for the day, most clubs run 2 events on average

2) Pay to Ride - You pay a higher fee and do not do anything, the higher fee is to help pay for workers and marshals in place of you

You can apply for your licence via the following link:- APPLY FOR A LICENCE

Entries

Once you have got your licence and it has been approved by your club you can now start entering events, events are available to enter from the 1 February every season. Riders can enter any event unless it is stated due to a regional championship or it is age / machine specific. You can enter events through the portal.
