About Membership in the SCA

Sustaining and International memberships include a year's subscription to your kingdom's newsletter, which contains kingdom news, announcements for events taking place in your area, and local group contacts. Lower-priced Associate and Family memberships are also available.

You are not required to purchase an SCA membership before attending SCA meetings and events. Membership is a requirement for holding office in SCA groups, for participation in combat and combat-related activities in some kingdoms, and for eligibility to receive awards in some kingdoms.

Benefits of Membership

• Discounts on event admissions
• Membership card - by signing the waiver on the membership application, you can speed your check-in at events by presenting your card instead of signing waivers at the door.
• SCA Publications - Sustaining members receive their kingdom's newsletter. Sustaining/International members can also purchase subscriptions to other kingdoms' newsletters, Tournaments Illuminated (the quarterly magazine of the Society), the Compleat Anachronist monograph series, and the Board of Directors' Proceedings.
• Voting privileges in your local group - the membership rolls are used when determining to whom to send pollings on group matters.
