(1) These By-Laws may be altered, amended or repealed and a set of new By-Laws may be
adopted at any annual State Body meeting or at any special State Body meeting in which at
least fifty percent (50%) of all voting representatives of the state are present. This fifty (50%)
requirement excludes any Kansas high school only teams chartered by USA Wrestling. Only
those proposed changes which have been identified in a notice sent out to member clubs at
least 20 days in advance of the meeting may be voted upon at the meeting; however,
amendments to the proposals are allowed.
(2) Proposed amendments of these by-laws may be made by any individual member of the USAWKansas
Wrestling Association. To guarantee that a proposed amendment is considered by the
Board of Directors, it must be presented to the State Chairman, in writing, by certified mail
postdated no later than March 15. The State Chairman must mail or email a copy of any
proposed amendments to each member of the Board of Directors no later than March 20. The
Board of Directors will review proposed amendments and make recommendation to the State
Body at the next annual meeting.
(3) The Corporate Board will review all proposed amendments and rules changes at its March
meeting and will vote on them at its July meeting. All proposals will be presented at the next
State Body meeting. Those motions that have been approved by the Corporate Board may be
passed by a majority of the voting members. Those motions without the approval of the
Corporate Board may be passed by a two-thirds vote of the voting members.
