Resign a member

Resigning a member ends their club membership — and optionally their Gliding New Zealand membership — while keeping their record and history. Use this when someone leaves the club. Don't delete the record: that would lose their ratings, history, and details.

Before you start

• You need to be a club administrator. You can resign a member from any club you administer.
• Resigning them from Gliding New Zealand as well is only available to the administrator of their primary club.

Step 1 — Open the member's edit form

Go to Members, open the member, and click Edit Member. Scroll down to the Membership Status & History card.

Step 2 — Open the resign panel

Click Resign Member…. A panel opens listing the clubs the member belongs to.

Step 3 — Choose what to resign

• Tick each club to resign the member from. You can only tick clubs you administer.
• Tick Gliding New Zealand to resign them nationally as well — this is only available to the primary club's administrator. When you do, choose the GNZ membership type to move them to (for example, Resigned).
• Ticking every club selects Gliding New Zealand for you automatically.

Step 4 — Add a reason and date

• Enter a Reason — this is required and is saved against the record.
• Set the Date — it defaults to today, so change it if the member left earlier.

Step 5 — Confirm

Click Resign Member. The membership now shows as Ended/Resigned in the history, with the dates and reason recorded. If you also resigned them from GNZ, head office is notified by email.

What happens next

The record isn't deleted — the member's ratings, contact details, and history are all kept. If they rejoin later, add them back from the members page.
