If they're requiring provincial registration, it could be an insurance requirement. Here in Saskatchewan a person has to join the provincial association, whether they race or not, if they want to belong to a club and do club rides. Everyone who goes on a ride is then covered by the provincial insurance, whether it's a touring or racing club.
I think the licence referred to must be a racing licence, which is needed to compete in sanctioned events. This must be a fairly competitive club.
