Constitution Templates – South Australian sport organisations

Supporting the Structure of Sport in South Australia  - Constitution Templates

In late 2006, ORS initiated a project to develop template constitutions for a State Sporting Organisation, (SSO), Regional Sporting Organisation, (RSO) and a Sport Club. 

For background information about why constitutional change is recommended click here to read "Why Change?" (397kb pdf).

The template documents meet the requirements of the Associations Incorporation Act 1985 in South Australia and incorporate best practice principles as outlined by the Australian Sports Commission. 

These template constitutions for sport are a guide for sporting clubs and associations in the community to either become incorporated or to update their existing constitutions.
 
As with any legal document this does not replace obtaining legal advice on your specific requirements.
