  • Where the club is levied a fine payable to the governing body by virtue of the conduct of a member, for example playing an ineligible player, the Management Committee reserves the right to pass on the fine to the member who shall be unable to participate in further club activities until such time as the fine is paid in full, or a payment plan has been agreed to and at least 25% of the fine is paid.

    The member will be barred from applying for any further membership of the club until such time as the outstanding fine is paid in full.

 

Code of Conduct

Perth Saints Football Club was established in 1998 with a vision to be different to other sporting clubs. The Saints would become a club with a strong social focus and a special atmosphere that would result in the players, their families and their friends being part of a bigger group – the Perth Saints family.

Perth Saints Football Club is now 25 years old and the focus on a vibrant, social atmosphere and a family environment is as strong today as it was when the club was founded.

In support of the development and growth of the club, it is important that formal club procedures are understood, respected and applied and that all players, coaches, families, supporters and spectators adhere to the club’s codes of conduct.

This document provides some basic information about the club and sets out in simple terms the things the club expects.

 

Incident Reporting

This document is applicable to all Coaches, Team Managers and Committee Members (Defined Person) of the Perth Saints FC.

The Perth Saints FC Vision is to be the destination of choice in our region for people of all ages who want to play football in a supportive, friendly and community focused environment.

Our club values are Respect, Teamwork and Development.

With this in mind, the club takes the conduct of our players, members, coaches and parents seriously and the implementation of a robust Incident Reporting Process will ensure we are able to hold to account any members who breach the club’s code of conduct, or the spirit of the game.

 

Strategic Plan 2022-2023

The club developed its first ever Strategic Plan at the conclusion of the 2021 season following two independently facilitated workshops involving the Management Committee. The subsequent two-year plan outlines our strategic direction including what we intend to do and the measures of our success. The Strategic Plan is built on four key pillars:

  • Governance and management

  • Participation and contribution

  • Communication

  • Financial management

 

Rules of Association

The Perth Saints operates under our Rules of Association (constitution), and which must be adopted by an absolute majority at an Annual General Meeting and be registered with the State Government Department of Commerce.

The constitution was most recently amended in 2017 and is the guiding document to the proper governance, transparency, and accountability of the club’s operations from the Management Committee to our members.

 

Annual General Meeting

The club is required to conduct an Annual General Meeting within six months of the end of our Financial Year, which is 31 October. The most recent AGM was held on February 6, 2022 and members can view the minutes and associated reports tabled at the AGM.
