Following constructive feedback and taking on board suggestions from BFA members, the Rules Working Party and Committee have worked together over the last few days on a revised constitution.

Constitution proposal update

Thank you to all the members who took time to give feedback regarding the proposed Constitution and the Rules of Racing.
The Committee have found this period of consultation very constructive and work has been undertaken this weekend by the Rules Working Party in conjunction with the Committee, to take these comments on board and to make amendments to the documents.

Constitution & Rules of Racing Proposal

As per our previous announcement on the 14th Feb in regards to the proposed change to the structure of our rules please see the attached Constitution & Rules of Flyball Racing.

The Constitution and Rules of Flyball racing have now been separated. What this means is that the constitution which provides the Association's foundation remains in place. The Rules for Flyball Racing will be open for proposals and a membership vote each year.

The constitution underpins the BFA's philosophy and ethos.

Social Media

Social media policy

Before forming the new BFA members group a social media policy was put into place. This was put in place to protect the Association, BFA members, Committee and Officers from destructive comments and behaviour levelled at the Association and its members.

To join BFA Members 2018 we have requested that people agree to abide by the terms and conditions within this policy and this includes comments made both within the group and about the BFA on any social media.
