Hilary of Pingrup, Western Australia has asked about the merging of two clubs.

There are a number of issues to be considered when two clubs merge.

Technically, these are the options:

1. Both clubs wind up and together form a new (third) club.

2. One club winds up and the members all become members of the other club.
