NAME The club shall be called the Ruislip and Northwood branch of the British Sub-Aqua Club (BSAC 0206). 2. OBJECTS The objects of the club shall be those of the BSAC; to foster interest in the sport of underwater swimming. The club shall operate within the rules of the BSAC, which will be read in conjunction with this constitution. 3. MANAGEMENT The Officers of the Club shall be: Chairperson Diving Officer Honorary Secretary Honorary Treasurer Management, direction and control of the club shall be vested in a committee which shall consist of the officers together with five elected members The committee shall hold and administer for the general benefit of the club, all funds, property and equipment in the general ownership of the club. The committee shall have the power to deal with any question arising as to the terms or construction of the constitution, and with matters therein provided for. The committee shall meet at least ten times a year (including the AGM). The committee shall be empowered to fill any vacancy which may occur on the committee, including those which may not be filled at the Annual General Meeting. The committee shall have the power to co-opt additional members who will be non-voting; it may also appoint sub-committees for specific purposes. To meet BSAC requirements regarding the delegation of responsibility, any Training Officer is an appointee of the Diving Officer and their name is put forward for approval at the AGM. This ensures that the Diving Officer remains responsible for all diving and training with in the branch. 4. MEMBERSHIP Full branch membership is open to anyone over the age of sixteen years (fourteen years for people whose parent(s) or guardian(s) are existing members or who join with them), and who are also members of the BSAC or who join the BSAC at the time they join the branch. For new branch members there is a four month probationary period, during which the branch can terminate membership. For this to occur it would require the agreement of the Diving Officer the Training Officer and the Chairman/woman. Should continued membership be refused a pro-rata refund may be given. Honorary full branch membership shall be conferred upon an individual as occasion arises by agreement of the committee (e.g. meritorious service to the branch over many years or for an exceptionally noteworthy event deserving the special recognition of the branch). In line with BSAC recommendations, the Branch will accept self-certification medicals for all new members. However, the Club will stress in early training lectures, that members, new to diving, should seek confirmation from their local GP that they are fit to dive. This will not entail a formal medical sign off which would normally be chargeable by the GP. Social membership shall be open to any person who wishes to join the branch for the purposes of unassisted swimming only. Such persons must pay the current social membership subscription of the branch. social membership applicants shall be subject to individual approval by the current branch committee. Participation in branch pool training or open water activities shall be limited to unassisted swimming. Application for membership must be made on the approved form, together with the necessary indemnity signed and endorsed for persons below eighteen years. When junior members are attending full time education, a 50% rebate in Club subscriptions is allowable provided a family member, paying a full diving subscription, is also a member of the Branch. 5. SUBSCRIPTIONS Two separate subscriptions are payable. I) An amount as determined by BSAC central council for membership of the national body. ii) An amount for branch membership as proposed by the outgoing committee and put forward to the AGM for discussion and approval (a rejoining fee may be payable for members whose membership is more than two months overdue). For new members without recognised diving qualifications, an initial joining fee is payable to the branch. The amount as proposed by the out going committee is to be put to the AGM for discussion and approval.
