Legal risks in the sports board: what treasurers need to know
More and more board members of sports clubs are quitting. The reason? The responsibility has become too great. This is evident from a recent article by Nieuwsuur. (https://nos.nl/nieuwsuur/artikel/2565397-bestuurders-sportclubs-haken-af-financiele-risico-s-te-groot). The financial and legal risk, in particular, lies heavily on the shoulders of treasurers. And often without them even knowing it.
The invisible pressure on the treasurer
Most treasurers are volunteers with a big heart for their club. But the range of tasks is extensive: budget, administration, collection of contributions, payments, reporting, and so on. What often remains underexposed is the legal responsibility that comes with this.
Did you know that treasurers can be legally liable for errors in contribution collection or violation of the GDPR?
An unfairly sent reminder or the use of outdated contact details can already lead to complaints or even legal action. Without the right knowledge or support, treasurers can get into a lot of trouble as a result.
