Club Constitutions & Affiliation

Club Constitutions

All Rowing WA affiliated clubs are required to have current constitutions which meet the requirements and are compliant with state government legislation.

The State government has provided resources to help assist clubs with the transition, develop their rules and complete the required checks. The Model Rules are a standard set of rules that can be adopted by associations who do not wish to develop their own rules.
