I have a couple of concerns,
Why are we, seemingly, the only organisation in Scotland, as far as I can tell, that requires eligibility to be added to an already bloated constitution?
Surely putting such a thing into the constitution makes it now unavoidable that any entrants or team selections must prove with documentation that they are indeed eligible for playing for a Scottish title or being picked for a Scottish team.
Who gets to handle that admin? I would also note that if passed before the primary and Secondary Championships next month the organisers would surely have to see documentary evidence of Scottishness before the event, wouldn't they?
I have an issue with the word "parents" in the second eligibility requirement. We surely need to define parent much more clearly, Is it the biological parents only, the step father or mother, also called parent, the grandparents who brought up the orphan, they also are parents, are they not?
The 2 year requirement, in the third criteria, how is that documented? What do we require? How many holidays of what length during the 2 year requirement are allowed?
Just a couple of thoughts, if it's going in the constitution it must surely be open to the least amount of interpretation as possible, for a change.
Possibly an admin could also remove the gum bumping postings about irrelevant past events to a separate thread for the purposes of clarity.
