Hi Folks, Just a thought for you to ponder before the Picnic, the most important part of forming a Club is naming it. We would like to gather as much suggestion as possible before we put up the most popular names for the community to select the one and only name for the Club. Here is the guidelines from the ROS on the Names of a society: The society's proposed name should not be the same or similar to that of another society or company/business that is already registered. To check, you may refer to the websites www.mha.gov.sg/ros (for societies) and www.acra.gov.sg (for companies/businesses). Below are some examples of similar names that ROS may not allow: Hope Friendship Centre vs Hope Friendship Services Outdoor Trekkers Club vs Outdoor Trekking Club Revival Faith Fellowship vs Revival Centre Fellowship · The name of the society must be spelt out in full. Acronyms/abbreviations are not encouraged. · Please provide a letter of support from the relevant authorities if you are using any of the following words as part of the name of the proposed society. "Academy", "Asean", "College" (with exception of an alumni), "Council", "Government", "Institute" (with exception of an alumni), "Lion City", "Merlion", "Ministry", "National", "Raffles", "Republic", "Registry" "State", "Stamford Raffles", "Temasek" · Similarly, please provide a letter of support from the relevant authorities if a name of a country is used as part of a society's name. · The word "Singapore" or its abbreviation is allowed to be used within brackets at the end of the society's name, eg. ABC Society (Singapore) to indicate the society's place of registration. · The word "The" shall not be used as the first word in the name of the society, eg. The ABC Society. You can name the society as "ABC Society, The" instead. So here you go some of the no-no we have to observe, and here some of my suggestion: FFFS - FlyFishing Federation (Singapore)
FFCS - FlyFishing Club (Singapore)
FFS - FlyFishing (Singapore) or how about... SFAS - Society of Fly Anglers (Singapore)Add on your suggestion and we do welcome suggestion for the logo as well. Cheers Qwek |

Hi Qwek, I have only one comment with FART - Fly Anglers Reconciliation Trust ( possibly even Fly Anglers Releasing Temensis ) Club ? ) Since we have to deal with a lot of government bodies and officers at this stage, not very nice for them to think that they are dealing with a group of "FARTS" We have to live with the name for the rest of our fishing careers hor.  regards Alberto ps - will be glad to help out in any way I can - just let me know. |

I do agree wif Alberto, we had our fun choosing funny names for our club, but I hope when we really choose a real name for our club would be a serious nice name instead of another shit floating around singapore. Cheers !  |
