Decision No. (16) of 2021 Amending Certain Provisions of the Model Bylaws of the Statute of Clubs Subject to the Supervision of the General Sports Authority, Issued by Decision No. (1) of 1990

ssued by HH Sheikh Khalid bin Hamad Al Khalifa, this decision introduces a major amendment in favor of sports club members regarding overdue membership subscription fees:

  • Article (10) was amended to completely remove "termination of membership" as a penalty for delayed payments (which was previously enacted in the 2020 decree).
  • A new Article (10 bis) introduces a 90-day grace period for members to clear their dues after being officially notified via registered mail. If they still fail to pay, their membership and its associated rights are temporarily frozen/suspended (rather than permanently terminated) until the outstanding fees are paid.
