Note: The difference between an executive committee member’s role and other
roles
A executive committee member role is a strategic position within the club and consequently, a executive committee member is responsible for governing the club. A executive committee member’s role should not be confused with
the management and operational roles of an organisation (like a Race Director, Inspector, Timer or Starter). The day-to-day work of the organisation is
managed and completed by these volunteers with the club. Unless you also hold an
execution (operational) role, it is not your responsibility to perform or be involved in the day-to-day
running of the club.
