Turkish Rugby League Association
The Rugby League Association is a non-profit association
registered in the national capital, Istanbul. Without government recognition,
Turkish organisations are legally prevented from using the name of the state in
their title. Having been formed in November 2016 by seven founding members the
entity was admitted as an RLEF Observer in July 2017.
The supreme organ is the general assembly, constituted by
the members, who can be legal or natural persons. The ordinary general assembly
meets every three years. New members are admitted by the general assembly.
The board has seven principal directors, including a
president, vice president, treasurer and general secretary, and seven
substitute directors and serves a three-year mandate. The supervisory board, or
audit committee, has three principal and three substitute members. It is the
chief oversight function of the association, ensuring the organisation is run
constitutionally and financially prudently, while adhering to achieving its
objects.
