# Restrict event registrations to athletes who are a member of a club (BETA)

Many organisers require athetels to be part of a club to complete. For this use case, we have introduced a beta version of the **Club membership** event restriction.

The Club membership restriction is an addition to the Completing clubs event setting.

Completing clubs allows atheltes to select their club during registration. Adding the Club membership entry restriction on top of this requires athetels to be part of a club in Liveheats.

|| As this is still in beta use this feature. Please contact us at community@liveheats.com to add, remove and transfer atheltes between clubs and follow the steps below to limit event entries to only athletes who have a club membership
