The purpose of the Federation is to co-ordinate activities between the member clubs. It also provides third party insurance for it's members. The Federation runs a National championship for Scotland. This was originally held at Falkirk but is now hosted by one of the member clubs and alternates between East and West coast clubs.
Clubs pay an annual fee plus a sum per member to cover insurance.
Individuals who are not club members can join as an individual member and will be insured by the Federation's policy.
