Registering Clubs and
Affiliate members
To be affiliated with AWA a club must pay a registration fee each year. This ensures that each member club is a financial member of AWA. They are referred to as an affiliate club that has affiliated club members.
The Club Member Registration Form is prescribed and so must be used for club registration. This form can be downloaded from the forms page (or from here [Form AWA04]). Clubs cannot register affiliate members with the AWA until the club is registered with the AWA. The registration period begins in 2nd week of June. Renewal of clubs uses the same form to capture changes in office-bearers as the AGM often occurs into the new year. Changes in office-bearers need to be be notified after the AGM.
Registering Affiliate Members (Club members)
The clubs collect the AWA fees along with their own club fees and may have different categories of membership. However they must use the above categories when they register their members with the AWA. The AWA registers its members with the MAAA.
The rules for AWA and MAAA membership are the same.
The Member Registration Form [AWA01] or Club members renewals [AWA02] can be downloaded from the forms area and can be used to register affiliated club members with the AWA. The prescribed form is to be used to register affiliate club members with the AWA.
Associate members of clubs can be added (after their primary club membership has been process) by using Form AWA02
Changing office bearers and AWA delegates
Clubs are required to notify the AWA of any changes to office bearers and AWA delegates. The Change of Office Bearers Form [Form AWA04]) is prescribed and must be used to notify AWA of any changes. There is no fee associated with changing office bearers.
MAAA cards
Members of the AWA are issued with a MAAA membership card. The MAAA card acts as proof of AWA membership, there is no AWA card. Typically the MAAA card takes up to six weeks to arrive. A club receipt can act as proof of AWA membership.
