division or member college on decisions from the FCCAA Executive Committee.
The FCCAA
Executive Committee, the chief administrative body, is charged with
the responsibility for overseeing the day‑to‑day operation of
the Association. The Executive Committee, with the FCCAA

Annual membership
dues finance the Association; each institution's share being determined
by a funding formula. Monies thus generated provide an annual
operating budget and are used to finance such items as approved statewide
tournaments, conventions, meetings, and activities; Association travel;
office expenses; and the salary of the Administrative Coordinator.
