Conlfilct Of Interest (COI)
Applicable Definition: A conflict of interest (COI) occurs when an individual or organization is involved in multiple interests, one of which could possibly corrupt the motivation for an act in the other.
The rules:
STAC82 will not knowingly recruit any person who is currently involved with, is a member of or who is employed by any other airsoft association, airsoft team or airsoft business that will, or may be perceived as having the potential to, cause a conflict of interest between STAC82 and said person’s above mentioned involvements. It is the responsibility of the potential recruit to inform STAC82 of any and all potential conflicts of interest that said person is, or may be, involved with or in, before a vote to recruit by STAC82 is held.
Any current member that does become involved in any situation that will, or may be perceived as having the potential to, cause a conflict of interest with STAC82 will be voted on at the next scheduled meeting to determine what corrective action should be taken. Such actions may include, but are not limited to the following: Termination from STAC82 air soft team. Any current member that does become involved in a situation that may cause a conflict of interest is required to notify STAC82 as soon as is reasonably possible.

STAC82 currently has annual dues in the amount of $20. For all current members, the dues must be paid to either the CO, XO or Treasurer by the last day of January each year.

STAC82 Command Structure
We do not operate in a “rank and file” system. The ranks within the team are a default command structure. Our ranks are not a mark of superiority among the team, but more of a sign of the voluntary level of commitment and responsibility to the team that Operator has.
