SOA EGM adopts new membership categories

The SOA held an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) on 30th November 2023.

The EGM proposed that following the creation of new membership categories for Young Adult and Families and part year membership fees by the British Orienteering Federation at their AGM, that the SOA should adopt membership categories for Young Adults, Families and part year membership for new Seniors memberships for 2024.

At the meeting those present and those who had submitted proxy votes all unanimously voted to approve the adoption of two new membership categories – Young Adults, Families – and part year membership for new senior members for 2024. Theses changes have been implemented in terms of BOF membership and due to complications with the SOA membership platform the SOA will be working with clubs to ensure these changes can be implemented for SOA only members as soon as practicable.
