Budget Control
I'd also recommend that the Championship Manager has budget control.
Someone else in the committee does the treasury stuff and accounting for it, but the CM decides, and passes the receipts to the Treasurer to prepare the financial information for publication. We all need to see its all above board.
CM collects 50% of all race fees. Of that 50%, they have up to 30% to spend on trophies, 10% to spend on promotion, 20% to spend on expenses, and attempt to retain 40% or £1000 in the bank.
The SORC race fee should be twice the usual amount of club fees, which I think on average in Scotland is about £5 per class. This will maintain usual club revenue at an SORC event, and will also allow the SORC to collect these monies to;
Provide trophies
Run the Championship
Promote it
Provide incentive for other clubs to also run Off-road cars (see next proposal).
The other half of the SORC race fee goes to pay for administration and trophies, as well as promotion of the series, such as websites, forums, advertising, expenses.
