Each year  a minimum of 3 Council meetings are conducted comprising delegates from the 9 Zones & Affliates. In addition an Annual General Meeting is conducted where voting members elect the President, Vice President and 5 Board Members. The elected NSWCRU Board of Directors meet on a monthly basis. The President’s role is largely to chair general meetings of members and regulate such meetings in any way consistent with the Constitution. The President is often called upon to act as a figurehead for NSW Country Rugby Union and engage in dignitary level liaison.
