No point applying to a fed for membership if you haven't got affiliation to your region as others may object to the forming of a new club. |

Rules 17-22 covers everything you need to know
Application for Affiliation
17. Any Club, Society or Organisation having
its headquarters within the United Kingdom
and having as its principal purpose the racing
or showing of homing pigeons may apply for
affiliation to the Association.
Any such applications must be:
a) made in writing by 1st February stating
the full names and addresses of no less than
eight members of the applicant Organisation;
b) accompanied by a copy of the rules drawn
up for the conduct of the applicant
Organisation, which shall include all the rules
in the Association's Standard Rules for
adoption by affiliated Organisations and
ensuring that all requirements of Rule 149 are
included, and
c) a written statement by the Organisation of
the reasons and the justification for its
affiliation
d) made to the Local Region Committee for
the geographical area in which the
headquarters of the applicant Organisation is
situated.
18. If an applicant Organisation has complied
with the foregoing provisions of this Rule the
Local Region Committee to which
application has been made may declare that
the applicant Organisation will be
provisionally admitted to affiliation to the
Association. The Local Region Committee
will thereupon cause such provisional
admission to be advertised in at least two of
the papers devoted solely to the sport of
racing and showing homing pigeons
circulating nationally within the United
Kingdom. Such papers shall be selected by
the Local Region Committee which shall be
obliged to ensure that the cost is kept as low
as reasonably possible, such cost to be borne
by the applicant Organisation.
19. Any member of the Association, either on
his own behalf or on behalf of any Club,
Group or Local Region, may object to the
admission of an Organisation by submitting
an objection in writing to the Secretary of the
Local Region Committee within 21 days from
the date of publication of the advertisement of
provisional admission. Any such objection
shall be signed by the objecting member and
if it purports to be made on behalf of a Club,
Group or Local Region shall be signed by an
officer of such Club, Group or Local Region.
20. The Secretary of the Local Region
Committee receiving any such objection shall
give details of such objection to the applicant
Organisation. The applicant Organisation
may submit an answer to such objection and
any such answer shall be in writing. Neither
the applicant Organisation nor the objector
shall, without the consent of the Local Region
Committee, be entitled to make any verbal
representation to the Local Region
Committee. Any objections and any answer
from an applicant Organisation shall be
considered by the Local Region Committee as
soon as practicable after the expiry of the 21
day period during which objections are
permitted to be made. The Local Region
Committee may admit or reject the applicant
Organisation. The decision of the Local
Region shall be final. If the objection is
upheld, the applicant Organisation cannot reapply
for affiliation for a further 12 months to
any Region of the Association.
21. If no objection to admission of the
applicant Organisation is received by the
Local Region Committee within 21 days of
publication of the said advertisements or the
Local Region Committee decides to admit the
applicant Organisation to affiliation to the
Association, the provisional admission of the
applicant Organisation shall become
operative and the Secretary of the Local
Region Committee shall inform the applicant
Organisation of this in writing.
22. No applicant Organisation shall be
admitted to affiliation to the Association
unless
(1) the rules drawn up for the conduct of such
Organisation are consistent with these Rules
and oblige all members of the applicant
Organisation to comply with these Rules; and
(2) if the name of the Organisation includes
the word ‘National’ unless membership of the
Organisation is open to all members of the
Association. |
