Life Members
Honorary Life Membership is the highest honour that the Kardinya Netball Club can bestow on an individual and is done so in recognition of those who have made an outstanding contribution to the existence or effectiveness of the club during their membership.
Significant contribution should have been made by the individual in terms of time, effort and commitment in the running of the Kardinya Netball Club and in providing extraordinary service to be outlined when awarding life membership medallion.
The nominee must be a current financial member and nominated by a current financial member. From 2012 not more than one life membership shall be given in each calendar year. If more than one nomination is received, nominees are ranked and runners up for life membership shall be considered for award the following year/s.
While there is no minimum period of membership; a period of 10 years active consecutive membership is a solid indicator of a long term commitment to the Kardinya Netball Club, however years of service alone is not sufficient to warrant Life Membership. Years of service should, unless exceptional circumstances be identified, be consecutive in nature.
