Public Identity
Starsz Stronghold
Starsz Stronghold is the association’s public-facing community name. The legal entity remains The Stronghold Gaming Club Incorporated, an ACT incorporated not-for-profit association.
Business-name registration is not presented as an automatic incorporated-association requirement. It is relevant only if the association is legally carrying on a business under that separate name. The Committee may obtain professional advice if the Club’s trading activities materially change.
The Club does not claim ACNC charity registration or deductible-gift-recipient status.
Association Objectives
These objectives are reproduced from the Constitution supplied to the website in July 2026.
- Unite and support gaming and role-playing communities across Australia through collaboration, shared resources and inclusive practices.
- Promote the creative, educational and social benefits of role-playing games and related events.
- Provide centralised platforms for game tracking, resource sharing, event promotion and safe community interaction.
- Support game organisers with administrative tools, technical support and visibility within the broader role-playing network.
- Offer discounts, benefits and opportunities to members through sponsorships, partnerships and community initiatives.
- Ensure all activities are inclusive, non-discriminatory and conducted with high standards of safety, fairness and respect.
Constitution and Rules
The Constitution provides for four membership tiers, a Committee comprising a President, Secretary, Treasurer and up to six additional members, two-year Committee terms, one vote per member, proxy voting, an AGM at least once each calendar year, internal mediation of disputes and transfer of remaining assets to a similar not-for-profit if the association winds up.
Where the association’s own rules do not address a matter, the ACT model rules may apply. The registered copy held by Access Canberra is the authoritative legal record.
Governance
The Committee is responsible for management and administration. The website also uses operational Steward titles for community responsibilities. Those public titles do not replace the formal Committee particulars recorded with Access Canberra.
- Committee elections are held every two years at the AGM.
- Every member has one vote.
- Proxy voting requires the association’s approved process and a completed proxy form.
- Membership funds and other income must be applied only to the association’s objectives and not for private gain.
- Committee, Public Officer and registered-office changes must be notified to Access Canberra within the applicable statutory timeframes.
Annual Reporting and Records
The association completes an annual statement and retains statements of account, reviewer or auditor reports, compliance statements and prescribed records for at least seven financial years. Public annual summaries appear on the Annual Reports page after approval.
