Affiliation Procedure

संलग्नता प्रक्रिया

How a district body seeks affiliation to the Association, and what it must do each year to retain it. Affiliation is the route by which athletes in a district enter state championships.

Procedure

प्रक्रिया
01

Constitute the district body

A District Association must be a registered body with its own constitution, elected office bearers and a bank account, open to every club and institution conducting athletics in the district.

02

Apply in writing

The application goes to the Honorary Secretary with the registration certificate, constitution, list of office bearers, list of affiliated clubs and the minutes of the meeting resolving to seek affiliation.

03

Scrutiny by the Executive Committee

The Executive Committee examines the application and may seek clarification or inspect. Only one body is affiliated per district.

04

Pay the affiliation fee

On approval, the affiliation fee is paid for the current season. Affiliation runs with the season and is renewed annually.

05

Annual renewal

Renewal requires the previous year's audited accounts, the annual report, the current list of office bearers, and evidence that district championships were conducted in the prescribed categories.
