Membership
Membership is made up of associations representing each of the countries 10 administrative provinces. While each association acts autonomously within its geographic border, all work together for the greater good of the game at national basis. These associations have seen directors on the 13 member ZC board and the provincial chairpersons also decide on the appointment of the remaining six directors onto the board.
Alongside the provincial association, ZC has provincial offices. In 2008, a review of the effectiveness of the current provincial structures was undertaken.
