  1. AA)        Junior Club/Federation/Union Member:

A Fancier under the age of 18 years.
Sure there might be some juniors who have wealthy parents and can afford to pay full subs and membership fees as if he were a Full Member,   however this is not the point.   Juniors’ members could range from any age e.g. 6 years old up to 18 years old and there are some important matters that we should consider.

Examples
1)      Juniors should not be allowed to take part in any Pools or any form of gambling
2)      Juniors should not have a right to vote on any matters associated with Normal membership of Clubs/Federations/Union/Fancy Clubs.
3)      Only once moving out of junior ranks does a junior get full voting rights.

As the constitution remains silent on this matter, I would suggest we need to insert such a clause.   The reason for this is that most 6,   8,    12,  14 year olds are still learning what is right or wrong,  forming opinions very often based on beliefs of the parents.   Not only can this be manipulated to support the parent’s point of view, their vote could influence the outcome of rather important issues which they have no clue on.

Even our country does not allow a vote from any person under the age of 18,   you cannot obtain a drivers license for a motor vehicle under the age of 18 and many other examples can be referenced.    There are very specific reasons for these laws and the right to vote should be treated in the same manner.
