The aim of the league shall be to encourage moderation in all things, particularly in the consumption of alcohol.
To be elected to the league a novice shall swear to remain comparatively sober for a (continuous) period not less than 24 hours, in each and every year.
The Society elders shall, at their discretion, and only in very exceptional circumstances, accept as a member, a person who is unable to make this declaration for medical, religious or ethical reasons, but whom in every other way supports the aims of the society.
Should a member, without reasonable excuse, fail to remain in a state of comparative sobriety, for a (continuous) period of not less than twenty four hours in any period of 365 days (or 366 if one of those days is the 29th of February), he shall at the discretion of the society elders, receive an official warning. More than 3 official warnings concerning this matter, in any three consecutive years will perhaps lead to a life long ban from the league. Members should take note of the importance of this matter.
Every person up for election (except for the first two) shall be proposed and seconded by full members.
The official symbol of the league shall be the ferret (rampant). The reason for this choice of mascot shall only be divulged to the member at the time of acceptance into the league, and it must not subsequently be divulged to any non-member.
Notes
Many famous people have been refused entry to the UCTL, or blacklisted from applying, because they could not fulfil the strict requirements. These include Prince William, Prince Harry, Oliver Reed and George Best.
Membership of the UCTL allows many privileges including attendance at the AGM which takes place on the 31st of December each year at HQ at about 10pm. There is a social event afterwards.
Other meetings are often held on an Ad Hoc basis. In particular the quiz sub-section meet at the Bush Upper Cwmbran most Sundays. It has been noticed by others that the quiz team usually win. Let this be a lesson to others on the benefits of sobriety!
Membership of the league is usually by invitation only, although large donations of cash to various worthwhile causes can help. Our charity of the month is the Building Fund of the Temperance Leagues Rest and Recuperation Centre and Refuge in Normandy, see below.
