GUIDELINES FOR CLUBS RE COMPLAINTS, DISCIPLINARY PROCEDURES & DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Please note that these guidelines are not binding and are issued in response to several requests for assistance in dispute resolution between members.
They are issued on the back of extensive experience in dealing with disputes and complaints over many years by Basketball Ireland.
We hope that they are useful.
COMPLAINTS
DISCIPLINARY
DISPUTE RESOLUTION
NOTES:
Mediation is a very good way of dealing with matters within clubs and the courts also take a similar view.
It is also advisable that clubs have appeal clauses in their rules whether it be to Basketball Ireland or to the local Area Board or to a body outside of the club as this clause can get disputes resolved outside of the club.
