Each club is autonomous and is led by a chairman (president) who is elected annually from among the members of the club and according to the bylaws of each club. A president can be re-elected once, but it is customary for a president to change annually.
He is assisted by one or two vice-presidents, a secretary, a treasurer and a protocol officer.
Each club also has a tailtwister, who is responsible for the animation of the meetings.
The website manager (internet) and the manager of the effects (membership) are two obligatory functions in a club. They are members of the board.
Every club has two monthly meetings: one dinner meeting and one working meeting.
These meetings take place at the club’s premises or at a member’s home. The meetings usually start at 7.30 pm and the official part usually ends around 10 pm.
Since friendship is important, all conversations about politics, religion or conversations of a sectarian nature are excluded from these meetings.
Regular attendance at the meetings is an obligation, except for those members who have a special status temporarily due to age, illness or professional reasons.
Each club decides independently on how many new members it will recruit and who will be admitted to the club.
