Along with the call to elections, FEVA also reminds “entities with more than six months of activity as a federation members can send two delegates to the Assembly, a delegate and an alternate, counting only one vote for the delegate, except in the absence of the delegate, when the alternate would vote.  For entities who have been part of the federation for less than six months, they have the right to send one delegate, but without a vote.”

“In all cases, delegates must be members of the club that they represent, at least 21 years of age, and should be duly accredited by a note from the Basque club.  Basque clubs must be up to do date with FEVA’s treasury and present proof of memberships and current legal status.”

The event will take place on April 22nd at 9:30 at the Laurak Bat Basque Club (Belgrano 1144) in the capital city.
