Join DIOK

There are 2 main stages to signing up with DIOK. Below are the steps to signing up:

  1. Sign up with DIOK:
  • Fill in the registration form and direct debit authorization
    You can fill in the registration form online and either hand in a filled-out copy of the direct debit authorization to the board or submit it digitally to treasurer@diok.nl, whichever you prefer.
  • Pay the club contribution
    The description and prices for each membership type can be found below. They are withdrawn from your account through direct debit once a year. You will be notified two weeks in advance when this happens.
  1. To sign up with the Sports Centre:
  • Buy a UnionCard or CampusCard
    You can buy one at sportsandculture.utwente.nl. Students and employees log in with their S- or M- accounts. Externals need to register once at the Sports Centre. You need to have a UnionCard or CampusCard before you can register to the association. As a Saxion student you can buy a CampusCard at the desk of the Sports Centre. The prices of the UnionCard can be found here and for the CampusCard they can be found here.
  • Register to DIOK on S&C
    Go to you ‘profile’ on the Sports and Culture website and then to ‘Organizations’. Here you choose for D.B.V. DIOK. We will get a confirmation email for your request.
  • CHANGES THIS YEAR: The association fee (verenigingsheffing)
    Previously an additional fee had to be paid with the sports centre called the association fee in addition to the Union/Campus Card and the DIOK contribution. However, starting this year, DIOK will be including this fee in our contribution saving you the hassle of paying this yourself. But this will lead to an increased contribution. You can see the new total contribution below in the last column.

If you have any questions, please reach out via board@diok.nl!

Below you find the contribution costs for this year. The first-time registration fee is € 2,50.

Contribution

Next to the UnionCard and the association fee, you also must pay the contribution (as with all the associations on the UT). The contribution is determined during the GMA. The current prices (2023-2024) are shown below where the number between brackets is the fee in case of a partial refund due to bar shifts.

Bar shift

You can get a partial refund (€15) on your contribution cost if you do three bar shifts during the year. More information about the bar shifts can be found here.

Description of memberships

This is a brief description of the memberships. Keep in mind these are the prices from the current season (2024-2025), so they are likely going to end up higher next year. The schedules for this year’s training can be seen via this link.
