I’ve just been told I need a club constitution for the high school club. I think it’s a bunch of red tape, but if it gets me “officially” recognized and therefore access to school money for chess sets, I’m all for it!
It’s been close to thirty years since I took part in writing one, so if anyone out there can lead me to some samples I can use, I’d appreciate it. This is for a club that has members in grades 9-12. Also, if it has club officer descriptions, that would be helpful.
I have a Club Handbook for the local University with a sample constitution included. I’m sure it should work for you (or at least get you started). What e-mail address would you like me to send it to?
Track down one of the other clubs constitution. If that clubs constitution got past the red tape, it should work for the chess club. Just change the name of the club, that should work.
i wrote a club rules and regulations scheme based on USCF suggestions. my club does not do all this but i think it is very comprehensive. i would be glad to email to whoever would like to see it. Is that what you mean by constitution?
