Overview

NAFA's board members are elected for three-year terms, and terms of office are staggered so that approximately one-third of the board members' terms will expire each year. No board member may serve for more than two full consecutive terms. Terms begin and expire at the Annual Meeting, which is held sometime between Nov 1 and Dec 15 each year.

From time to time the Board also submits rule changes to delegates for consideration.

Affiliate clubs are given a number of delegate votes (up to 8) based on the number of tournaments that club competes in and/or hosts during a fiscal year (Oct 1 to Sept 30). Each board member and regional director receives one delegate vote as well.
