Objectives and Governance
The business of the Club is managed by a Committee of Management consisting of Office Bearers and five committee members.
During the 50 years plus that the club has operated its strong sense of community participation has remained. Today the diversity of its membership and the opportunities for its members to participate in both internal club events and through Coast Archers Inc. external archery tournaments has widened the scope of the club’s activities. The Articles of Association of the Club reflect this wider scope.
Recognising that not all members of the club want to or indeed are able to participate in external tournaments, due to age, disability or economic circumstance, the Articles of Association have been established to provide a framework within which the club will function and meet the objectives set out in the Memorandum whilst not discriminating between members who wish to participate in the internal activities of the club only and those who seek a wider participation in the sport of archery, as such these articles provide a framework for the participation of all members.
